Hi Please help with this persistent problem

When I DL cryotools, and double click the file… It opens up some kind of terminal with script… But does not execute the file

The same happens after I DL emudeck… How the f do I execute the file… Should it not be a simple double click ?

Thanks

    You’ve already marked then as executable, right? Great.

    Right-click on the file and see if there’s an option like “run as program” or “run in terminal” or something similar. If there is, click it.

    Still no luck? Okay, open your file browser, find the file, and right click on the empty space (not on the file itself). Open a terminal. Now, type ./name-of-file. For example, if the file is called “emudeck.sh,” then you would type ./emudeck.sh. You can use the tab button to autocomplete the file name when you’re typing it, if that helps.
