QuickGUI Installation Guide – Auto-Open + Thank You Modal

Visit the QuickGUI releases page
Download the latest quickgui-*-linux.deb file (e.g. quickgui-1.2.10+1-linux.deb or newer)

Install it via terminal:

cd ~/Downloads
sudo apt install ./quickgui-*-linux.deb

This method bundles Quickemu + dependencies automatically.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:flexiondotorg/quickemu -y
sudo apt update
sudo apt install quickemu quickgui

Advantages:

Avoid older third-party PPAs (e.g. yannick-mauray/quickgui) — they don’t support 24.04.

Launch QuickGUI from menu or terminal: quickgui
Set a VM storage directory (recommended: ~/VMs or ~/QuickGUI-VMs — avoid ~/)
Click Create new machine → choose OS → Download ISO → QuickGUI builds optimized VM
Press Play to start

Tip: After first boot, VMs usually start from the qcow2 disk (not ISO again).

Install these if you see SPICE/VNC/QEMU errors:

sudo apt install qemu-system-x86 qemu-utils ovmf spice-vdagent swtpm
