How to Run AppImages in Ubuntu 24.04 LTS #UbuntuQuickFixes

Can’t run AppImage applications in Ubuntu 24.04? You are not alone.

By default, Ubuntu doesn’t support the FUSE library required for running the AppImages.

The solution is quick and simple. You have to install the required library first and then run the downloaded AppImage as an executable program.

The command to install fuse2 library on Ubuntu 24.04 (ONLY) is:

sudo apt install libfuse2t64

After this library is installed, right-click on the downloaded AppImage file and make sure that it is set to be executed as programs in the properties.

Enjoy the AppImage applications.

This is one of the many Quick Fix Ubuntu videos I’ll be publishing. Stay tuned for more.

  • When I pin to the dock bar, when I open it again, a new gear icon will show the open status instead of the fixed icon

  • Good tip, i had problems in the past with this and took me hours to get it running. This explains and shows it perfectly 🙂
