There is a shortcut in my Desktop folder which is not shown on Desktop itself (see empty desktop screen attached).
Also when I try to open file explorer it displays: “Could not open location …” see the screenshot with error attached. Please help how to fix both above. Thank you.
Gnome itself does not support desktop icon for a long time, but it’s available from extensions. Open gnome-tweaks, and in Extension tab, you can find Desktop icons and enable it.
What do you mean by file explorer? How do you opened it?
