2. type the command to start up the Workbench. prefaced with the term "sudo". For example, if you opted to include a softlink to /usr/local/bin when you installed the software or you have otherwise placed the CLC Genomics Workbench on your PATH, you should usually be able to type: sudo clcgenomicswb20 If the above does not work, try using the full path to the software.
