I modified the desktop files and made the execution paths absolute as you did. Now it should work.

Thanks for the response, but the desktop files don't seem to work for me.

I have the two desktop files in /usr/share/applications (FreeFileSync.desktop and RealTimeSync.desktop) as expected but neither work (on Arch Linux with GNOME).

If I manually edit e.g. the FreeFileSync.desktop file and change the Exec key to '/opt/freefilesync/FreeFileSync %f' then it works

The binaries are not working in /usr/bin because they require that all resources are in the same directory.

Missing binary files in /usr/bin, won't start from desktop files.

Doesn't seem to pick up config either (~/.FreeFileSync)

Edit: just noticed config path has been changed to ~/.config/FreeFileSync with version 10.6
