Hi, I've downloaded some Firefox appimages of different versions and also tested with locally installed latest stable version, but when I try to open a file or whatever menu that needs to load a file it does nothing and the terminal shows this output:

My update error log is below.  It provides a dpkg command to run but when I do so I get a message about needing superuser privileges.  How do I get past this.  I am the only user.

Edit:  Never mind.  I just realized that the "sudo" prefix is the answer.

Hi there. I am using Linux for the first time, and I was trying to run privoxy on my laptop. I ran the command for update and upgrade, and used the command: apt install privoxy -y

It doesn't create a config file so when I try to run privoxy config I get:
/ect/privoxy/config does not exist

I tried following someone's video for using privoxy and I can't seem to get past installation.. If this isn't how you (the reader) set up and run proxy's, how do you (reader) do it? If there is something I'm missing please let me know. I would like to know how to download privoxy the right way.

        Thank you
