+ its does the same to any other .Run format file, Done tried the thing u go into property and tell it run as a program but still wont open normally it installed and ran through the terminal.
  But when one tried to run it or open it, it only runs it like a .txt format and opens it as a gedit text format 
  what this program is, it is a more Advance very graphical benchmarking too to test Graphics and FPS (frames per second) Counter to check see how fast one's computer is.
