how to find the installing path of some install application? [duplicate]
- I install (using the terminal setup command) Visual Studio Code. I can run it (by clicking on the icon on the 'all programs') but I can't find the installation path of it.
I want to run it using sudo and I need to navigate to the installation path to use the terminal and call sudo visualStudioCode and I can't find it. (Try to use the 'find', but I can't find it.)
- How can I create a shortcut of this
sudo visualStudioCodeon the Ubuntu desktop?
