AppImage

(3rd-party AppImageLauncher issue) Unable to run .AppImage in Ubuntu 16.04

Using AppImages
#1

We need to install a software through .AppImage file (size: 78.4 MB) For this we have set permission as execute (see https://prnt.sc/ti8hrh).

When we are trying to run by double clicking then we are getting an error “cannot mount appimage check fuse setup”. See https://prnt.sc/ti8lyf

We have followed the wiki article https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/wiki/FUSE and ran the following commands:

==================
sudo apt install fuse
sudo modprobe fuse
sudo groupadd fuse

user="$(whoami)"
sudo usermod -a -G fuse $user

==================
But still same issue. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Thank you for the response.

We have executed from the CLI as mentioned below:

./workcomposer-linux-installer.AppImage --appimage-extract

Then the said software is showing in Application . But when we are trying to open this software then we are getting error.

The screenshot is showing a bug in AppImageLauncher. This issue is being discussed at https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher/issues/286.

Which operating system (distribution) and version are you using?

What happens if you uninstall AppImageLauncher and try again?
