I upgraded from 22.04 to 24.04.1 on my Ubuntu box and some of my AppImages stopped working. Not all of them just a few. First to get AppImages working at all, you have to install libfuse2t64, which is different from what you need on 22.04.
To install libfuse2t64 open a Terminal Windows and run the following command:
sudo apt install libfuse2t64
Even after this, some AppImages still won't work. They give an error something like this:
[: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_ObsidiOpBPaM/chrome-sandbox is owned by root and has mode 4755.
This is a known issue with no time frame listed for a fix. The only work around for this I could find is to run your AppImage with the "--no-sandbox" option like this:
./Appimage_File_Name.AppImage --no-sandbox
This allows your appimages to run but they will NOT BE SANDBOXED. Know that this could be a problem if you get a rouge appimage so only use this solution if you really need the app and are aware of the risks you are taking.
