Problem setting shortcut for Tor Browser
I've installed Tor Browser and I can run it buy the command:
./start-tor-browser.desktop
This command works as long as the Tor icon(the globe icon) is in : /home/user/tor-browser_de/ and I am also there in ~/tor-browser_de.
When I want to set the shortcut Super+T, I use the command ./start-tor-browser.desktop, but it does not work. I copied the Tor icon to /home/user, but the problem still persists. How can I fix this problem?

Provide the full path to the file, i.e./home/user/tor-browser_de/start-tor-browser.desktop. I'm not sure if running a.desktopfile works in the context of a shortcut though. If not, open the file in a text editor and use the command specified in theExec=...line.

The command needs the full path. I've tried it with a bash-script for now and ./Path/To/File/Script.sh does not work. But bash /Path/To/File/Script.sh does.
In: Running a .desktop file in the terminal i found it should be deskopen, so the command for your shortcut should be:
deskopen /home/user/tor-browser_de/start-tor-browser.desktop
I hope that helps!

@ guntbert thanks for comment, I'll try to improve my edits. But I don't understand whats wrong with correcting GParted? You have rejected one of my posts in which I had corrected GParted 5 times. I see edits in which only one letter is capitalizad.

I figured it out, thanks to the link attached by @Patient32Bit . There is an answer that says:
The answer should be
xdg-open program_name.desktop
But due to a bug this no longer works.
But the answer goes to 2010, and it seems that the bug is fixed. I set the shortcut by:

Most correct way is to edit .desktop file. Open it with text editor, and change path to tor to correct one. Then everything should work fine, including keyboard shortcut.
As I remember in tor bundle is relative path, so you can unpack it and run. Fix it.
