## Activation Not Persisting
If you're having trouble with your Msty license activation not persisting, it might be related to your desktop environment.
To resolve this, set the `XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP` environment variable to `GNOME` before launching the app. This ensures Msty can interact properly with the keychain for storing your license.

```sh
export XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP='GNOME' && ./<FileName>.AppImage
