I am not that familiar with Python but I think it might work if you put the exec line like this:
Code:
Exec=bash -c 'cd /home/mobian/MyWaydroidManager/ && python3 MyWaydroidManager.py'

or

Code:
Exec=python3 /home/mobian/MyWaydroidManager/MyWaydroidManager.py

or maybe Big Grin

Code:
Exec=/usr/bin/env python3 /home/mobian/MyWaydroidManager/MyWaydroidManager.py

Just throwing curve balls but either of those should not make any harm so feel free to try Smile

If your desktop file does not open terminal at all you might want to install gnome-terminal and try then again Smile (recent versions of console will support opening trough desktop files but that is not the case with all version)
