Hi, go to Releases tab and download USSR according to your OS.
Extract, open a Terminal in the extracted folder and execute ./USSR

[MadMacMad]

yes ... but still the same...
also using sudo doesn't change anything still get:
./USSR: command not found
thx
M.

No, I didn't have the device to do it. Generally, the steps is same for any kind of terminal.

It's weird. Does USSR executable present in the folder? How about drag n drop the executable directly?
Maybe change the permission chmod +x?

Hi, I see you struggling with building project. While README.md does not say anything about building, and the project does not have wiki to show how to build the project, always check .github folder for workflows. This project have the build.yml workflow file: https://github.com/kiraio-moe/USSR/blob/main/.github/workflows/build.yml
Here you see, that to build it you have to setup dotnet and build it using following command:

dotnet build -c Release --no-restore

Then it creates folder in the project somewhere, where executables can be found.

And I think you want to download yours already built executables from https://github.com/kiraio-moe/USSR/releases/tag/ussr-v1.1.7, not just downloading project sources as a zip file from the repository.

open USSR directory in the terminal and then at the prompt type "open USSR" you will run into the GateKeeper. So once it stops you opening the app go to System Settings and Privacy & Security and click the Open Anyway button which should be there. Run the open command again and accept you are happy to open the app.

Edit:

Solution

• Open extracted USSR directory in the terminal.
• Allow USSR to execute by changing the permission chmod +x ./USSR.
• Run USSR by typing ./USSR. You will run into the GateKeeper.
• Still running USSR in the terminal, go to System Settings -> Privacy & Security, find for Open Anyway button which should be there and click it.
• Terminate USSR in the terminal with Ctrl+C keys.
• Run USSR again ./USSR and accept you are happy to open the app on the pop up window.
