how can I resolve thi problem??
It based on your laptop (os) linux, if you active the format of files so you can use that particular bash script. If your laptop doesn’t show the format of files just use “xdman”
The terminal already said “no such file or directory”. Make sure you in right (extracted xdman) directory
Same things for me. 3rd step is not working. I checked your step too, but still same. Any solution?
Hi ,
Please try to run this command :
$ sudo chmod o+x xdman
I think it was a typo , remove “.sh” in 3rd & 4th Step.
The chrome extension is not working. Please check if its compatible.
