Let’s search for alacarte (“main menu”) & you can find the below window.

Install alacarte using apt-get using the command below. Let’s use this to create shortcut for the tor bowser which we just installed. Launching tor browser from GUIĪlacarte is a GNOME menu editor which can be used to create/edit shortcuts. Launch you favorite browser (for now at least) and point to and click on the Download Tor Browser button on the right. Therefore, let’s create a shortcut GUI icon. start-tor-browser -detachĬertainly, this will launch your browser but as you can see that you always need to navigate to /opt/tor-browser_en-US/Browser which is not a cool way of launching something. Let’s move to /opt mv tor-browser_en-US /opt/tor-browser_en-US cd /opt/tor-browser_en-US/Browser. I always move all the software to /opt you can move it to / home/$user its just a personal choice.

I previously did an upgrade and ran into bugs.

This is a clean install of 22.04 just so you know. Edit: I just want to say that when I installed Ubuntu 22.04 I checked the box that said "look for and install 3rd party software", usually I don't check that box but this time I chose to.
