I am not to set environment variable, but to use environment variable in desktop entry file. Or did you mean you can set up env command in desktop entry file? > Can you show full Exec line you used? I have following variable in desktop entry file, it works in KDE and Thunar, but failed in Nautilus. Path=$HOME The error was "Failed to change directory $HOME (No such file or directory). I have seen some examples to use $HOME in desktop entry file such as following link. Was I wrong that $HOME can never be used in desktop entry file? [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Version=1.0 Type=Application Terminal=false Exec=$HOME/MyApp Name=My Application Icon=$HOME/Icons/MyIcon.png http://linuxcritic.wordpress.com/2010/04/07/anatomy-of-a-desktop-file/#comment-2150 Thank you. Kind regards.
