Try changing the Icon properties set to allow execute.

Minor ones, the download and install were fine and that fixed my lack of spell-checking that I was complaining of here a while back. I'm using Linux Mint 18. The new icons for version 5.3 showed up in the start menu and they work. My boot process ends at a desktop so I like to have a LO Writer icon on the desktop so I can start there if I want. I popped up the start menu, went into "office" then with the mouse over the LO Writer icon, dragged it to the desktop, leaving me with a desktop icon as launcher. Clicking on the desktop icon gives a dialog box with a message, "untrusted application launcher" and "The application launcher 'libre-office5-3writer.desktop' has not been marked as trusted. If you do not know the source of this file, launching it may be unsafe." Below are two buttons, "Launch anyway" and "Cancel" I always launch and it works fine. Still it would be nice to make it trusted. Also the icon has a little lock emblem in the top right corner. Ordinarily I expect to see that when I'm running as a user and trying to launch a program owned by root. And finally I'd like to be able to change the icon image and label text but an attempt to rename through the icon properties dialogue box leaves me with a message box telling me the item could not be renamed and 'unable to rename desktop file.' All small stuff the upgrade is still very worthwhile. TIA Dave
