After install Perspective Workstation, I would like run my application when stratup my computer and put a bash file in the desktop for execute. I tried all solution ".desktop" and "init.d". Nothing works.  
Do you have a solution ?  
I don't have file explorer, just terminal.  
Thanks

I do hope you're not trying to run Workstation on a headless install 🙂

Where i can check this ?  
I don't have any probleme when I execute in terminal the commande "gtk-launch perspectiveworkstation.desktop", my application start fine. But after, when I execute my file from my desktop with click, nothing is happening. A window appears and disappears in a fraction of a second, without leaving an error message.

my file .desktop :  
[Desktop Entry]  
Encoding=UFT-8  
Version=1.0  
Type=Application  
Terminal=true  
Icon=/root/./ignition/clientlauncher-data/images/launcher.png  
Name=Graphitation  
Exec= bash /home/user/Downloads/perspectiveworkstation/app/perspectiveworkstation.sh

maybe it's a permission errors ?

Did you actually mistype the Encoding entry?
