Ubuntu 23 - Unknown Error #1

Open Pixels304 opened 8 months ago

Pixels304 commented 8 months ago

Ubuntu did not understand the information on the desktop. I attempted to create a shortcut directly from executable which I built which did not contain a .desktop file. I compiled a project from Jesscar96 called Steam Desktop Authenticator using MonoDevelop.

Learning how to use Linux, painful process, two days to learn how to build an executable from a project on Github. Apparently this is a bit beyond my capabilities, I can run it manually by exploring in files, but unable to snap a shortcut to desktop.

Suggestions?

Post a screenshot of what parameters you're putting into my program

I attempted to move the folder contents around. I also selected properties to ensure that the executable had read and write permissions set.

Location for executable is /home/sda executable is named sda.exe icon is also in /home/sda selected false for terminal app

it has a popup that says: "Broken Desktop file This.desktop file has errors or points to a program without permissions. It can not be executed. Edit the file to set the correct executable Program.

Probably you should run it with "mono filepath.exe" ( put your own path)
