You have been subscribed to a public bug: Ubuntu 22.04 desktop shortcut created from /usr/share/applications cannot be executed!
right-click does not show allow launching in the drop down menu! so it cannot be launched and show the message: Untrusted Desktop File This .desktop is not trusted. It can not be launched. To enable launching, right-click then: Enable "Allow Launching" but guess what there is no "Allow Launching" in the drop down menu. It is working in Ubuntu 20.04 and the "Allow Launching" is available. Making the shortcut executable and making desktop owns by user and not root does not help. 1) release: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Jammy 5.15.0-37-generic 2) package: not relevant. 3) what you expect: execution of the .desktop shortcut 4) what happened instead: message: Untrusted Desktop File This .desktop is not trusted. It can not be launched. To enable launching, right-click then: Enable "Allow Launching" ** Affects: gnome-shell (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: bot-comment -- Ubuntu 22.04 desktop shortcut not executable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1977912 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
