Just after installing the application on Ubuntu 24.04, trying to run the application causes a crash with the error, "LaunchProcess: failed to execvp: /opt/Azure". This error is caused by the spaces in application path, "/opt/Azure IoT Explorer Preview". Changing the path without spaces fixes the issue.

1. Download the .deb file from https://github.com/azure/azure-iot-explorer/releases
2. Install the .deb file as dpkg -i {download-path}/azure-iot-explorer_0.15.12_amd64.deb
3. Run the applicaton, $azure-iot-explorer
4. See error
**Expected behavior**
Launch of the Application with graphical interface.
**Desktop (please complete the following information):**

- Ubuntu 24.04
- 0.15.12

Research direction
Start by reproducing the .deb installation on Ubuntu 24.04 using the reported version and launch command, then inspect the packaging or launcher configuration responsible for the application path. Done means the installed application launches its graphical interface successfully when installed at the reported path containing spaces.
