@juanpc2018 What libfuse version is installed in your OS ? 2 or 3 ? You installed Steam ? Steam installation does changes in libfuse.

I have no idea what this ticket is about. You need to provide repro steps and show what is not working exactly.
its working on 20.04 .4
but i have tested many other distros using ventoy... almost all distros. seems problem is related to Nvidia propietary driver...
shows ok using Nouveau driver NV137 in 20.04 but last time i tested clean install did Not work. 0% Now icon works.
this distro also has i386 installed, maybe could be that.
im also testing on a different CPU & Board AMD last time i was testing i3 12100
when IOMMU is activated on the Bios, Linux has problems, but... intel board dont has IOMMU option on the UEFI. same GPU GTX 1050 Ti
Install Bleachbit and select in section System all less disk space and section Thumbnails too. The issue was fixed ? Perhaps not is related with RPCS3.
For me, using the Plasma the desktop the RPCS3 appimage icon is missing on Dolphin
@AniLeo Providing actionable information here:
Quick summary
TL;DR: The AppImage is missing a .DirIcon symlink in the root of the AppImage, pointing to rpcs3.svg.
Details
Somewhere between the build v0.0.36-17733 and v0.0.36-17791 (that is between 1st and 18th of April, according to my files' modification dates) the .DirIcon symlink went missing.
As per the specification, said file is meant to be used by system thumbnailers to provide a pretty icon for the AppImage file.
KDE's Dolphin is one of Linux file explorers, which generate thumbnails for AppImages by default.
A notable example of a file explorer that does not support AppImage thumbnailing is Gnome's Nautilus (as per https://github.com/ppy/osu/issues/30759#issuecomment-2484082386).
As the result of the .DirIcon symlink going missing, since somewhere in April new builds of RPCS3 miss the emulator's icon in Dolphin.
I would love to track down the problematic release further, but the releases page is completely out of order and therefore unusable.
Judging by the screenshot in https://github.com/RPCS3/rpcs3/issues/16526#issuecomment-2785134175 it seems the breaking change has been introduced after v0.0.36-17765.

Other details
https://github.com/ppy/osu/issues/30759 is an example of another piece of software suffering from the same issue, which can be used as a reference point here.
As for the original report https://github.com/RPCS3/rpcs3/issues/16526#issue-2773911738 which was made in January, the issue was most likely on the side of that user. Since their system is Kubuntu, it's probably safe to assume they're using Dolphin. Therefore it's probable that they've mistakenly disabled the thumbnailing functionality in "Dolphin -> Configure -> Configure Dolphin... -> Interface -> Previews -> Show previews in the view for: [ ] AppImage" (or otherwise uninstalled the thumbnailing functionality).
@TechniKris thanks for the details
I have previews enabled for AppImage on my Manjaro install and on Dolphin I don't get of the icon previews on any of the AppImage as you've shown, but .DirIcon is clearly missing on the newer builds so the issue is clear enough even if I can't repro
By the way, the builds page is not the one you linked, it's https://rpcs3.net/builds

A Manjaro issue perhaps?

Ah, thank you 😄
