Appimage program
I’d like to add an AppImage program to the games list, which I managed to do, but unfortunately it doesn’t launch.
I selected Linux as the platform. I turned off game mode. This isn’t really a game (it’s a World of Warcraft addon manager: WoWUp).
The Heroic Game Launcher is installed from Flatpak.
WoWUp itself works fine if I just launch it from the file manager.
I set the launch option to --appimage-extract.
In the log, only the extraction shows up, no errors:

Once you run your AppImage with
--appimage-extract, a squashfs-root folder with the contents will be created in the same directory as the file. The actual executable is gonna be somewhere in there
