Installing Anydesk on Linux: Ubuntu, Red Hat, Fedora
Installing AnyDesk on Ubuntu:
- Open a terminal;
- Navigate to your Downloads folder by typing cd /home/user/Downloads, replacing “user” with your account name;
- Type sudo dpkg -i package_name.deb, replacing “package_name” with the exact name of the downloaded file;
- Enter your password and press Enter;
- Type “sudo dpkg -f install” (without quotes) in a terminal to install all dependencies, if any.
If you don’t want to work through the terminal, you can use the graphical Gdebi installer. For this:
Install Gdebi if the program is not already on your computer by typing sudo apt install gdebi in the terminal;
- Enter your account password, press Enter;
- Open the Downloads folder in the file manager;
- Right-click on the saved file, select “open in Gdebi”;
- A window will open in which you need to click on “Install package”;
- Enter your password.
To install the program in Red Hat:
- Download the package from our website;
- Open a terminal;
- Navigate to your Downloads folder by typing cd /home/user/Downloads, replacing “user” with your account name;
- Type the command sudo rpm -ivh package_name.rpm, replacing “package_name” with the name of the downloaded file;
- Wait for the installation completion message to appear.
Now you can run the installed software. Fedora doesn’t need a separate manual. Because Red Hat and Fedora use the rpm package type for installation, the above instructions work on both operating systems.
