I've installed
```log
snap install --channel=latest/edge code-insiders --classic
snap install --channel=latest/edge firefox
```

```sh
powershell-preview
```
<blockQuote>
```log
PS /home/RokeJulianLockhart> pwsh-preview

...nor had `.desktop` files created for them:
Despite the presence of
```pwsh
Get-ChildItem -LiteralPath '/usr/share/applications' | Select-String 'firefox'
```
it outputs

(which are perhaps remnants of an installation of https://software.opensuse.org/package/MozillaFirefox) as aforestated, KDE's Application Launcher is unable to locate any, and certainly none exist for `code-insiders`:
```pwsh
Get-ChildItem -LiteralPath '/usr/share/applications' | Select-String 'visual studio'
```
