How do I find the path to genymotion
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I am having a problem trying to find where Ubuntu stores the program folders. I am new to Linux and only know a few limited terminal commands, but I have tried hundreds of folders in Ubuntu and cannot find where the programs reside. I tried the find command but I get a few hundred hits and none of them seem to be correct. I have GenyMotion installed and running correctly but I need the path to the program folder in order to connect it with Intellij.
Any help would be appriciated.
Thanks

For what I see, Genymotion would be a virtual machine running in VirtualBox. So there is no "Genymotion program". It would be VirtualBox booting a VM from some VDI/VDMK image.

In bash use type to see what the command is: alias, built-in, and if not either the path to the executable.
>type gcc
gcc is /usr/bin/gcc
>type ll
ll is aliased to `ls -alF'
You can add a realpath invocation to resolve links (even the multi-stage links used by alternatives`):
>type java
java is /usr/bin/java
>realpath /usr/bin/java
/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java

Use the which command to fine the location of the command e.g.:
which genymotion
If the program is installed in a standard location, it will be found and the location printed out. If a third party application is not installed in a standard location, then to run it from the command line you either need to add its location to your PATH variable, or type in the full path, which you may have decided at installation time. For instance, if you decided to install a program to your Documents folder, your program path might look like:
/home/<username>/Documents/<myprogram>/bin

I tried the 'which' command but it returns nothing. It seems a shame that I cannot right click on the Genymotion icon in the applications folder and get the path and the actual name of the file it is starting, but that does not work either.
