I installed SQLite browser in Ubuntu, however, the icon shown is the 'gear' as indicated below. I checked it in the 'Ubuntu software', it seems that I launched SQLite browser successfully and the icon is shown correctly. Hence I am seeking assistance to solve the icon problem.

Thanks for everyone's reply.

Hi @FedKad , I found the .desktop files after running the code you provided. However, when I executed the file, it shows No such file or directory as below. I am not sure if I opened these files correctly.

(base) ch@VirtualBox:~$ find / -name *.desktop 2>/dev/null -exec grep -l 'DB Browser for SQLite' '{}' \;
/snap/sqlitebrowser/3233/meta/gui/sqlitebrowser.desktop
/snap/sqlitebrowser/3233/share/applications/sqlitebrowser.desktop
/var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/sqlitebrowser_sqlitebrowser.desktop
(base) ch@VirtualBox:~$ exec/snap/sqlitebrowser/3233/meta/gui/sqlitebrowser.desktop
bash: exec/snap/sqlitebrowser/3233/meta/gui/sqlitebrowser.desktop: No such file or directory
(base) ch@VirtualBox:~$ exec/snap/sqlitebrowser/3233/share/applications/sqlitebrowser.desktop
bash: exec/snap/sqlitebrowser/3233/share/applications/sqlitebrowser.desktop: No such file or directory
(base) ch@CH-VirtualBox:~$ exec/var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/sqlitebrowser_sqlitebrowser.desktop
bash: exec/var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/sqlitebrowser_sqlitebrowser.desktop: No such file or directory

Thanks in advance if you could correct me or guide me on this issue.

Hi @vanadium , yes you are correct that I installed this software via snap and the reason is that when I installed this app via APT, it shows the problem below, so I could only change to install it via snap.

No apt package "sqlitebrowser", but there is a snap with that name.
Try "snap install sqlitebrowser"

E: Unable to locate package sqlitebrowser

Is there any one knowing that why I cannot install SQLite browser via APT? How I can do it? Thanks!

It may help if you [edit] your question and add the contents of the related `.desktop` file. To locate that file, use the command `find / -name *.desktop 2>/dev/null -exec grep -l 'DB Browser for SQLite' '{}' \;`

When installed via APT, an icon is properly installed. Your installation may be snap: check whether it appears in the output of `snap list`, and thus be a snap packaging problem. IF needed, you can install an icon manually, but first provide the info FedKad requested.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
