Linux terminal shortcut

I wanted to use Fn+F4 keys to open the terminal but I got a message that there is no task for this shortcut and I just added "terminal" word there and now whenever I want to use this shortcut I get this error message:

"Failed to execute child process “terminal” (No such file or directory)"

Can anyone please help me to solve this problem?

There are 3 steps after creating shortcut for terminal :

  1. Name : e.g , "Launch Terminal"
  2. command : Choose one of these : { GNOME Terminal: "gnome-terminal"

Xfce Terminal: "xfce4-terminal"

Konsole (KDE): "konsole"

Tilix: "tilix"

LXTerminal: "lxterminal" }

3.Your Shortcut : fn + f4

Check for Existing Shortcuts:

  • Open Settings
  • Navigate to Keyboard
  • Check if a shortcut for opening the terminal is listed
  • If a shortcut exists then try to reset the keyboard settings to default, This might fix the issues

Or Add Shortcut Manually:

  • Open Keyboard settings
  • Find Keyboard Shortcut settings
  • Click on the add Custom shortcut option ("+ button")
  • Enter Name, Comment for opening the Terminal, and add Shortcut

There is no such thing as terminal command, I believe you are looking for x-terminal-emulator, assuming this is a Linux-based operating system (might not apply for all of them).
