I was wondering if anyone could tell me what to do for the command line and directory. I am new to this stuff and I have searched videos for hours trying to figure it out and I still can't. Any help would be appreciated. I installed it from flathub and im on chromes version of linux.

The "command line" is where the application that you would like to be associated with the desktop file. From a terminal you can usually fine this with the following command:

which application-name

The output will be the command line you want to use.

The "directory" would be where the application will "start from". You may not need to set this for most applications.
