I have some challenges installing the app via the terminal as well, but I am yet to figure out what went wrong However, via the AppImage file option. Just download it. Right-click on the file and, down under properties, enable the "Executable as Program" option. Once you are done with that, close the tab. Now, right-click on the AppImage file again, you will be able to see the "Run as program" option, click on it, and you are good to go

Have you tried the guide provided by electrum.org under "Installation from Python sources" or the guide provided from their github page hereIf it didn't work would you mind to copy paste the error here so that we know what command you stuck.

Once you are done with that, close the tab. +1, OP just miss that step. I miss that step also a few hours ago after trying to install it on bootable Linux. OP must go to property and the permission tab to tick "allow executing file as program"https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum-docs/blob/master/tails.rstOpen Home/Persistent folder (where the appimage will now live), right click on the appimage and select Properties. Select the Permissions tab and click "Allow executing file as program" then close the dialog. More detailed instructions with screenshots are available here If still didn't work, OP could use appimagetool to extract an existing AppImage into an AppDir appimagetool -v /path/to/AppDir or just simple use this code into terminal: ./electrum --appimage-extract Here many step you could try : https://superuser.com/questions/1301583/how-can-i-extract-files-from-an-appimage

You do not need to extract the appimage, but you need to run it by clicking on Properties and then Executable as Program. If you are not a Linux user, it is better to download Electrum on an operating system that you know, although the possibility of exposure to viruses on Linux is less, but the possibility of making a mistake remains, and therefore it is better to use an operating system familiar with it or buy a hardware wallet.

Thank you alls for the suggestions. I've got! the problem was that also Ledger Live was going in that moment, what is not permited to execute correctly. But it surged another question: why the account which is on 25-th word doesn't visualize the balance?

you mean hidden wallet? Go to File > New/Restore, choose a wallet name (any name) and connect using your HW device, enter PIN and correct PIN and correct passphrase + right derivation path You can find out right derivation path by the type of address you used in the past. Did it started with 1, 3, or bc1? According to this order, you choose one, two, or three option. Try this and you will succeed. As long as the balance is zero, I think your problem is in the last right derivation step. Otherwise, your problem is in one of the first steps. To access your standard wallet (first wallet or not hidden one), Go to File > New/Restore, choose a wallet name (any name) and connect using your HW device, enter PIN and correct PIN and make passphrase blank. you you will need new wallet file per account/derivation

thank you for your explication. Yes, it was error in derivation path. I left everything as default and in that way gone well. Tell me please: suppose, one day, if my Ledger devise will stop function for some reason, how will I be able to access to my wallet which seed phrase & passphrase (25th word) I have with Electrum wallet? Thank you & I'm sorry for may be stupid questions, I'm a newer

It sounds like you got Electrum to run on your system, but I'll make a suggestion about running an AppImage in Ubuntu: I've had the same issue when I've installed Ubuntu Minimal, it appears that installing the OS with that method doesn't install libfuse2, a specific library needed to run some app images. To fix the issue: sudo apt install libfuse2
Tell me please: suppose, one day, if my Ledger devise will stop function for some reason, how will I be able to access to my wallet which seed phrase & passphrase (25th word) I have with Electrum wallet?
You can use Electrum to restore your wallet without needing the Ledger. You can use your seed phrase to create a new wallet in Electrum, and on the tab where you enter your seed, there's a button to allow you choose some options. You need select the option for an extended seed, then enter your extra word in the dialogue box for the extension. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.postimg.cc%2FmDtF7WJN%2Fimage.png&t=665&c=CYprE1S8NJiqfg)

So I can sleep peacefully, knowing that there is no need of Ledger device for backing in possession of my wallet. I read that the Electrum is a cold wallet. Does it mean, that it runs when the PC is offline? If yes, in which way the transactions does happen if the computer do not connect to internet? Thanks a lot!

If Electrum doesn't detect your ledger, maybe something is wrong with the cable USB, or the Bitcoin application didn't install yet on the ledger application or you didn't Set up the udev rules. So if your problem with the last one, you have to set it up 1st by go to the terminal, and set it up by following the code: wget -q -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LedgerHQ/udev-rules/master/add_udev_rules.sh | sudo bash https://support.ledger.com/hc/en-us/articles/115005165269-Fix-connection-issues?support=trueI read that the Electrum is a cold wallet. Does it mean, that it runs when the PC is offline? If yes, in which way the transactions does happen if the computer do not connect to internet? Thanks a lot!
Yes, you can run Electrum offline without being connected to the internet, you can use offline transactions until Sign, but for broadcast, you need the internet. On electrum 4.3.3, you have to carefully because the new update looks different when transaction. You have to click Preview tab when being new transaction appears tab sign and broadcast, so if you click OK the transaction being together with sign and broadcast.

Now, right-click on the AppImage file again, you will be able to see the "Run as program" option, click on it, and you are good to go
You can also just open a terminal to the downloads folder and type chmod +x ./Electrum-<whatever-version>.AppImage for identical results.

You can use Electrum as a cold wallet or a hot wallet, it depends on your setup (you can also clarify what you mean by cold wallet, since some sources differ on its definition afaik). You might want to check this guide[1] or search about "airgap setup" on this board if you want to read further. [1] https://electrum.readthedocs.io/en/latest/coldstorage.html
