Here we have a great example how bugs are being solved. Since there was no good solution, I updated 20.04 to 20.10. Bug was still there. Then I updated to 21.04 - and, voila, bug is not present anymore.
So the solution is clear. Just wait till bugs dissapear by "natural reasons"... or till users switch to some other operating system. Great way to go, really. -- 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/1883174 Title: Some (or all) desktop icons are missing Status in gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons: Unknown Status in gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: OS: Ubuntu 20.04 GNOME: 3.36.2 Extension: 3.36.2 Sometimes, some icons in my Desktop folder just don't appear on the desktop. The missing icons aren't invisible, it's like they're not in the folder. Clicking on the empty space where they should be does nothing. Mousing over the empty space does nothing. See attached screenshot. As you can see, there are many missing. Not consistently reproducible, but frequent. This isn't great info, I know. Let me know what else I can provide.
