I have seen other issues, but these seem to be because of Windows WSL limitations where I'm using Konsole on Manjaro KDE.

AppImage 3.0.2 (stable).

It also opens a new hyper window, which doesn't do anything, but if I close it then the original window finally goes back to prompt, so must be expecting something from it...

I can install plugins without problems using version 3.1.0-canary.4 (pre-release). But I keep struggling with version 3.0.2

OS: Arch Linux (5.8.1-arch1-1)

Same here.

• KDE Neon 5.19 (based on Ubuntu 20.04)
• Hyper v3.0.2 version .AppImage

edit:

I confirm the problem is only with the .AppImage version. Installed the .deb and it just works fine (same configs).

[martonlederer]

Same. Arch Linux manjaro

[datadu-de]

ditto on artix

[be-krishna]

Same. Pop OS 20.10.

Edit:
Appimage v3.0.2 was causing problem.

Fix: .deb file from release fixed my problem.

[gponty]

Same here, manjaro.

[rastydnb]

Same here, manjar
Hyper version 3.0.2
