unpack it into the "/opt" folder as specified below? If you type in "paraview" into the command prompt, then it will search folders defined by a $PATH environment variable to run the program/command. This includes the default locations for most programs, and the command apt-get install places programs in those locations. But the "opt" folder is most likely not part of your path by default as it is part of a custom installation. You can find out what your $PATH variable is by typing "echo $PATH" in the command prompt. Please see: </font><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables</a>.<div><div><br></div><div>Wayne suggested that you install the downloaded binary into a separate (i.e. custom) folder that is probably not part
of your path -- i.e. in the folder "/opt." So to run it you have type in the command "/opt/ParaView-3.10.0-Linux-x86_64/bin/paraview," not "paraview."</div><div><br></div><div>But if you want to launch the downloaded binary without having to typing the "/opt/Parav*" stuff before it, you would have to add the custom folder to your path. Go to your home directory, open the ".bashrc" file (using vim, gedit, or whatever editor you like), then at the bottom you can type in the following:</div><div><br></div><div>export PATH=/opt/ParaView-3.10.0-Linux-x64_64/bin/:$PATH</div><div><br></div><div>This will add the custom directory to your path variable. Also, you can remove the older version of paraview (installed via apt-get) that you installed by going into "Synaptic Packet Manager," searching for Paraview, and un-installing it there. </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br><font class="yiv1391743027Apple-style-span" size="2">--- On
