Heroic appimage runs briefly in task manager before closing

When I try to run my Heroic appimage, the application only runs briefly in the task manager before it closes. No actual Heroic Games Launcher window appears. I am at least able to get the Flatpak version to launch.

try to run it in cli with this ./Heroic-2.15.2.AppImage in your installed directory. Change the filename to your heroic appimage filename. If it prints error you could try pass it in here

It's telling me
[19413:0101/165852.892103:FATAL:setuid_sandbox_host.cc(158)] The SUID sandbox helper binary was found, but is not configured correctly. Rather than run without sandboxing I'm aborting now. You need to make sure that /tmp/.mount_HeroicgmHEu5/chrome-sandbox is owned by root and has mode 4755.

WARNING: This script disables sandboxing for all AppImages. Use at your own risk
Not sure if that's a good idea This is strange though, AppImage works fine here

The partition I'm running the Heroic appimage in is an ext4 partition

when you use other appimage does it display the same error you could try this command sudo chown root /tmp/.mount_HeroicgmHEu5/chrome-sandbox sudo chmod 4755 /tmp/.mount_HeroicgmHEu5/chrome-sandbox since it looks like a permission error then verify the permisision that by running ls -l /tmp/.mount_HeroicgmHEu5/chrome-sandbox

I'm able to use other appimages just fine When I try the first two commands I get "no such file or directory"

it seems to be an issue with appimages using electron (the error comes from electron), so maybe those other app images are not electron apps?

I don't think the other appimages I've been using are electron apps.
