Go to the directory where you have the .run file. Right click on it > properties > permissions and confirm that the box "allow executing as a program" is checked. Then open terminal, navigate to where the file is located and execute it. i.e. if the file is in your Downloads folder, open terminal and write:

Code:
cd /home/costelo65/Downloads
sudo ./filename.run


If you need administrator rights, firstly do
Code:
chmod 755 filename.run

and then
Code:
sudo ./filename.run
