Just FYI for anyone that stumbles upon this thread. In Ubuntu 20.04, if you want to work around the issue for now it can be done by placing your preferred desktop files in the home (or any other) folder and just placing link files to those files on your desktop. When you do this you can still dou

OK, made more progress. First, I was finally able to reproduce the issue in the new account. For my initial test I just created 4 or 5 very small text files. On my regular desktop I have a much larger text file that is 39kb with 1100+ lines. The size of the file is what makes it break, which poi

Sergio, So... I think I followed your last comment and did some more research.. If I can try to summarize briefly, what your saying is that to understand if your new patch works (which I believe is the goal so that ultimately it might be moved forward), we need to prove that it solves our issue.

I am not sure I am following. To be clearer, I have multiple other extensions installed and they all work fine... specifically unite, walkpaper, user themes and workspace indicator. It is just the desktop icons one that I can't install or work with. I do already have gnome- shell-extensions inst

Nevermind, I figured out its just sudo apt remove gnome-shell-extension- desktop-icons. I did that and its completely gone from /usr now. However, I no longer have the extension at all. I reran the steps to install the patch version and I don't see the extension, so I must be missing a step some

How do you uninstall it properly? I enabled it through the https://extensions.gnome.org/ page, but there is not an uninstall option there. It does not show up as an installed .deb in ubuntu software, so I am assuming we need to do a sudo apt remove, but not sure what package is called -- Yo

I did not uninstall per say, I just deleted the .local directory as mentioned in the readme... i.e. Deleted the folder ($HOME/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions /desktop-icons@csoriano) If there is a better way to clear and reinstall then let me know and I will be happy to try it out... -- Yo

Sure, it must be some sort of interaction or missing dependency because I get it every single time I save a file that is on the desktop. I reproduced the error then immediately pulled the tail of the log you proposed. I do see a javascript error related to this extension... Here is the full t
