Thanks for the reply. I could not find a solution because my error seems to be discovered by the Program LibreOffice, a file management system. I could add two screen images to my reply, but I do not know how to.

LibreOffice is definitely not a file management system...

The key-file is not intended to be opened/used by any other program than the FreeFileSync (FFS) installer program.
Simply make sure the key-file is unzipped to the same folder as the FFS installer and then run the FFS installer.

The attached image shows the installer and the key in the same location, I assume unzipped.
With what command do I run the installer?

You need to unzip the compressed folder you downloaded. If you can't do that, I'm amazed you got Linux working

Thanks for your patience with me. I installed the Donation edition successfully.
