mv command in one of the following formats:
mv <path to extracted archive folder> <new archive folder>
For example:
mv /downloads/WebStorm-* my/desired/location
-
mv <path to WebStorm-*.tar.gz> <new archive folder>
For example:
mv /downloads/WebStorm-*.tar.gz my/desired/location
-
Switch to the
bin directory in the new location:
cd <new archive folder>/WebStorm-*/bin
For example,
cd my/desired/location/WebStorm-*/bin
- Run
WebStorm.sh from the bin subdirectory.
