As reported, i changed the application name and file name in the generator ,the output filename was successfully changed,but my ubuntu system still shows that the application name is "rustdesk". btw,the "rustdesk" words inside the application was succesfully changed

I will have to look into this issue when I get some time. It is possible that the rustdesk build script is preventing the name change. Does your Application Name use English characters or another language?

Sure, only English characters are used.

Another problem related to this - when trying to stop the rustdesk service on Linux, system will try to stop custom-app-name.service.

If you have multiple words, separated with a space, it will try to close each word/service individually, eg :

custom.service
app.service
name.service

Putting "rustdesk" somewhere in the name does the trick and correctly stop the service.
