when I try to search no applications are found.I could not figure what is wrong here.Any help is appreciated.
Solution 1:
The process involves two steps:
Download the needed files from here or any other location.
-
Then make file
executable
with:chmod +x VNC-Viewer-6.0.2-Linux-x64
-
Then move it to say your
home directory
and run it from there, or any other location:mv VNC-Viewer-6.0.2-Linux-x64 ~/ ./VNC-Viewer-6.0.2-Linux-x64
Note: You don't install you just run it.

Solution 2:
There are many VNC clients. Some have the same vncviewer
executable. One is TigerVNC which is available in the package manager:
sudo apt install tigervnc-viewer
vncviewer <ip>:<display/port>
