Describe the bug

Opening a .run file while AppImageLauncher is installed, opens the integration prompt and ultimately fails.

Expected behavior

AppImageLauncher should not intervene with non-AppImages

Steps to reproduce the issue

Try running this on a system with AppImageLauncher installed:
newshosting_x64_installer.run.zip (I cannot vouch for the safety of this, as it is a proprietary application.)

Additional context

What makes you think that .run thing is not an AppImage? It is! It is that company that needs to "hide" that if they want to. But AppImageLauncher is entirely right there.

Edit: the file is an AppImage, no matter the file extension.
