I am trying to install Firefox Dev and followed this: How do I install the Firefox Developer Edition?
I created, with nano, a file: firefox_dev.desktop in ~/.local/share/applications/firefox_dev.desktop
[Desktop Entry] Name=Firefox Developer GenericName=Firefox Developer Edition Exec=/opt/firefox_dev/firefox Terminal=false Icon=/opt/firefox_dev/browser/icons/mozicon128.png Type=Application Categories=Application;Network;X-Developer; Comment=Firefox Developer Edition Web Browser. And I'm stuck; how do I launch it?

Just log out and then log back in… That should do the trick!

0Make sure your that your path of Exec,Icon and other paths are correct. This are the contents of my firefox.desktop file.
[Desktop Entry] Name=Firefox GenericName=Firefox Exec=/home/myapps/firefox/firefox-69.0.1/firefox/firefox Terminal=false Icon=/home/myapps/firefox/firefox-69.0.1/firefox/browser/chrome/icons/default/default128.png Type=Application Categories=Application;Network;X-Developer; Comment=Firefox Developer Edition Web Browser. where firefox at the end of "Exec" is "ELF 64-bit LSB executable", make sure that you mention that too.
