Installed Goland using Jetbrains Toolbox made a shortcut in the folder /usr/share/applications Tried to give chmod 777 did not help.
OS Ubuntu 18.04

  • 1. what else "admin"? 2. What is the "label"? 3. what is the general effect of such “installed golang using the jetbrains toolbox” and how did you think of it? 4. there is a suspicion that we are talking about the distribution is not gnu / linux, but ms / windows. You are not mistaken in the labels, title and text of the question? - aleksandr barakin 6:02 pm

I had a similar problem with creating a shortcut. An application shortcut is a text file with something like this:

 [Desktop Entry] Version=1.0 Type=Application Name=Besiege Comment= Exec=/home/anon/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Besiege/Besiege.x86_64 Icon=/home/anon/Besiege/Besiege_Data/Resources/UnityPlayer.png Path=/home/anon/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Besiege Terminal=false StartupNotify=false Categories=Application;Game;StrategyGame;

Your task is to create the same file with the .desktop extension, then in the Exec line, specify the path to the executable file or just a command. In the Icon line specify the icon image. In the Path line, specify the working directory of the application, most often the folder where it is located. Then move it to the /usr/share/applications folder so that each system user can see the application in the list. Or move to ~ / .local / share / applications /, this is for the user only. The rights to the file are:

 -rw-r--r-- 1 anon users 333 дек 24 15:56 besiege.desktop

If I have questions, write.
