Tried multiple iso, same error… Right now I am on Manjaro KDE and I used the app image of etcher

Solved the issue by using etcher package from pacman.

If Etcher does not flash then try Rufus instead, I did for img on 16 gb drive

When trying to flash an SD card using the AppImage packaged version of Etcher, running on Manjaro Linux, the process fails because of a permission issue.

A user has also suggested a fix for this permission issue if you want to keep using the AppImage. According to user @Niceplace in Github:

The issue is solved by deleting the package appimagelauncher and rebooting the system (not sure if the reboot is really necessary, but I did it and it worked). Others might need to also remove libappimage (from extra) but that was not the case for me.
