As you will see from the attached screenshot, there are standard folder icons on the left. Those are the duplicates. They do not respond when clicked and cannot be dragged or auto-arranged.
The ones that do work mostly have customized folder images. For example, there is: -- a standard folder "Chernobyl" that is a duplicate (doesn't work) -- a customized folder depicting an atom (clicks when opened) After I put the screenshot on the desktop, 2 icons appeared -- an "active" one, plus a duplicate which looks the same but also won't respond when clicked. You attention to this is very appreciated! ** Attachment added: "Screenshot" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons/+bug/1829533/+attachment/5264683/+files/Screenshot%20from%202019-05-18%2011-03-03.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1829533 Title: Doubled desktop icons Status in gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I customized my icons by changing the folder image. That worked fine in Ubuntu 18.04. When I upgraded to 19.04 my customized icons no longer showed the new image, and to fix that I did... something. Install Nemo deskop, I think, but I can't find a configuration or uninstall option for it. Then the old icons with the customized images worked fine... but now the folders have a doubles that are "dummies" (not working -- not customized -- don't respond to being clicked). In the Gnome Tweak Took Desktop icons is "off" but the toggle for "Desktop Icons Switch" has an ! meaning can't be turned on or off. I'm moderately techy in Windows, but still pretty stupid about Linux, sorry. But I can probably run tests, find logs, paste commands into Terminal Window or whatever. THANKS!!!
