    Is this Pop_OS 22.04¿?

    If so there is a tool called eddy pre-installed to handle .deb file installs. All you have to do is double click on the file.

      I’ve tried that but it’s hard to follow the install. Like when it installs and I press the green open button, it just doesn’t work, and doesn’t behave like I would expect it too. E.g. click open it doesn’t work, or no desktop icon is created, and it doesn’t show up in the app drawer, evening making in into an executable in the properties doesn’t work sometimes. (I would expect it to act like an .exe or flatpak.) I’ll try to get it working again rn.

        Odd. Can you share which application is it that you are trying to install. Maybe it doesn’t create a desktop file hence the lack of an launcher in the app drawer¿?
