Launcher packages can be installed via the Omniverse Launcher. The archive should NOT be unzipped prior to installation.

  1. Make sure an Omniverse launcher is installed.

  2. Open up a shell and execute the following (with the appropriate absolute filepath for the zip file):

    • Windows: start omniverse-launcher://install?path="C:\my_company.usd_explorer.zip" command cheat-sheet

    • Linux: xdg-open omniverse-launcher://install?path="/home/my_username/my_company.usd_explorer.zip" command cheat-sheet

  3. The Launcher shows an installation progress bar.

  4. Once installation is complete, the Application is listed in the Library tab’s Apps section.
