I downloaded postman tar from the official website and extracted the files, just like I did it the exact same way when I was using Ubuntu 16.04. Extracting is working but When I want to launch the application by double clicking the executable, it is not responding. While in 16.04 it would then launch Postman. I'm not getting any errors, just no reaction. I tried the x64 and x86 versions but that made no difference.

    Postman-linux-x64-6.0.10.tar.gz. No guarantee that an executable can be clicked / double clicked with any OS. .... ... Please do the command ./Postman In a terminal → If any errors, they should appear as text. ( I get this : "ORM initialization successful", etc.)

I had the same problem on a clean 18.04 install, the library libgconf2-4 could not be found.



Try sudo apt install libgconf2-4, it should solve your problem.
