I have attached a video illustrating this issue which explains there is the bug.
My conclusion: There is a bug in Ubuntu-Settings --> Ubuntu Desktop. When this GUI appears, the 2 toggle switches are hidden. Then toggling the corresponding 2 switches in Extension Manager actually temporary fixes the issue in Ubuntu-Settings but once Ubuntu-Settings is closed all the previous fixes and settings for these two toggle switch are lost. This issue occurs only when the toggle switches are in the "ON" state and would not happen if they are toggled to the "OFF" state. ** Attachment added: "Reason for missing toggle switch Settings-UbuntuDock.webm" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/2119185/+attachment/5895486/+files/Reason%20for%20missing%20toggle%20switch%20Settings-UbuntuDock.webm -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2119185 Title: Settings -> Ubuntu Desktop: Toggle switch for the Desktop Icons and the Dock are missing Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In the `Settings -> Ubuntu Desktop`, you will notice that `Enhanced Tiling` has a toggle switch to enable/disable the `Enhanced Tiling` feature. However, such a toggle switch is missing for the `Desktop Icons` and the `Dock`. Especially for `Desktop Icons`, it is inefficient planning to make a user call up another app/extension called `Extension Manager` to toggle `Desktop Icon NG (DING)` so as to enable/disable the appearance of icons in the Desktop. This latter process is also non-intuitive; its causes users to have to search around for such a feature. Most users would just search within `Settings` to achieve this and would not know that they have to call up a non-Gnome or non_Ubuntu extension to activate such a simple and commonly used feature. I hope such a fix can be implemented for `Settings` in Gnome >=46 and for Ubuntu 24.04. Previously, I had reported this issue to Gnome-Settings, https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/-/issues/3527, and was informed that Ubuntu's package maintainer has to resolve this issue.
