Checklist

I have searched for a similar issue in this repository and did not find one.
I am using an official build obtained from releases or updated one of those builds using its in-app updater.

Describe the Bug

I have my Shadps4 appimage on ~/Apllications
When i updated from the app from 0.6 to 0.7 it opened automatically 0.7 but... where the hell does it download the 0.7 version?
Im super confused
My appimage is still 0.6 so no replacement of appimage or something.

Reproduction Steps

Open 0.6 appimage
Update to 0.7
Close
Reopen same app image

Expected Behavior

The appimage should get replaced... i guess.

Specify OS Version

Linux Debian Branch: Testing

CPU

AMD Ryzen 9 5900X

GPU

AMD Radeon RX 6600 XT

Amount of RAM in GB

This reminded me of issue #1296. Maybe you have the same.

I ran into this issue just now, and in my case I believe it was caused by my using Gear Lever to install the AppImage. The source of this was due to the AppImage file itself being renamed to just "shadPS4.AppImage" instead of "Shadps4-qt.AppImage". The auto-update would download and then create a new file with the -qt name, but my existing shortcut pointed to the original renamed file.

Did you also happen to use Gear Lever to set up the AppImage? Do you know if you otherwise renamed the file? When you open it, are you opening the file directly or via a shortcut?

If you are affected in the same way, my fix was to open the file directly, run the autoupdate, and then update my shortcut to point to the newly generated Shadps4-qt.AppImage

This also might make it the same issue as #1806
