Weird I didn't ever ask for "desktopfolder" to be installed. I must have
loaded something else which saw fit to call for it.

But I didn't get any warning messages about XYZ being broken when I
removed it.

Thanks again anyhow.

Thanks that has completely cured it.

I don't really understand what the command ever did for anyone.
Everything I ever do is working fine without it.

Mind you my desktop icons are all over the place now and some had to
have launcher re-enabled.

But everything is OK now thanks again.

Ubuntu does not install or support 'desktopfolder'. You can safely
remove it, after which you should still have access to your desktop
files.

The problem then is in 'desktopfolder', also tracking in
https://github.com/spheras/desktopfolder/issues/312

If you don't need 'desktopfolder' then please uninstall it:

  sudo apt purge desktopfolder

Process 2554 is "desktopfolder" which I suppose isn't a surprise.

The original xrestop command was still running, having built up to 11MB.
I aborted it and ran it again as you said.

I attach the output from the second xrestop command.

Oh gosh it's still going strong having reached 8.5MB can I send you
selected highlights as I should imagine 99% of it is going to be
irrelevant.

Also xrestop shouldn't still be running. Perhaps try:

  xrestop -b -m 1 > xrestop.txt

The second command says

_NET_WM_PID(CARDINAL) = 2554

The xrestop command is still running, having built up to 1.5MB at the
time of writing. I'll gzip it and attach it when it's done.

Thanks, now we just need to figure out who owns window 0x203.

Assuming you haven't logged out yet, please run:

  xrestop -b > xrestop.txt

and attach the resulting text file here.

You should also be able to find out which process owns the black window
with:

  xprop -id 0x203 | grep _NET_WM_PID
