Hi. Did you first go on the desktop? If you didn't you can do it by opening a terminal and typing the following:

cd /home/[USER]/Desktop/ (replace [USER] with your username)

then, to make the shell script executable, type:

chmod a+x first.sh

If you have further questions, don't hesitate to ask!:)
