[Bug 1867462] Re: Desktop-icons extension runs, shows icons, even when disabled
Weirdly, you can't disable the extension within the 'Tweaks' 'extensions' option, but if you install the gnome-shell-extension-prefs application (see https://www.starryhope.com/notes/hide-desktop-icons-on-ubuntu-20.04/ for details) then you get an 'Extensions' application where you can disable the three built-in extensions. Installing this enables Desktop Icons to be correctly disabled, and you can then, if feeling like it, try out the fork which behaves much more like the older Nautilus controlled desktop - https://gitlab.com/rastersoft/desktop-icons-ng -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1867462 Title: Desktop-icons extension runs, shows icons, even when disabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1867462/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Everything is still the same as @Aaron described. Extension cannot be disabled in any normal way. Will try to force remove it now... :/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1867462 Title: Desktop-icons extension runs, shows icons, even when disabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1867462/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1867462] Re: Desktop-icons extension runs, shows icons, even when disabled
The user experience leaves a lot to be desired. At extensions.gnome.org it shows as an extension which can be disabled and has updates. When I turn it off, it doesn't turn off, and when I try to update it, it says I can't update it because it is not turned off. Other extensions don't work that way. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1867462 Title: Desktop-icons extension runs, shows icons, even when disabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1867462/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

if we are forced to use these desktop-icons... then they should not appear under the dock! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1867462 Title: Desktop-icons extension runs, shows icons, even when disabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1867462/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The issue has nothing to do with gnome-control-center which doesn't include a desktop icons option ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1867462 Title: Desktop-icons extension runs, shows icons, even when disabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1867462/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
