Bug Description

Practically if I try to drag in the taskbar on the left an application freezes everything and you cannot make squares in the desk nor click on other apps in the bar nor turn off the computer, only the open tabs work. Even some app icons that I closed don't show up and if I click on all apps it doesn't work.

I can't give you a photo or a video because I had to restart the computer because it was unusable I also add that being stuck at the desk with a double click on the desk the last program I had used in this case firefox which was always open , so I managed to report the bug otherwise I would not have been able to do it because everything was blocked, I also helped myself with alt + f2.
I don't know which application was affected, a user told me gnome-shell however everything that was seen on the screen was affected except the programs, bar on the left, bar on the top and desk. The activity button worked only if you pressed the windows button from the keyboard, clicking on it with the mouse nothing so everything else I have talked about so far. Even once apoerto from the keyboard anything you touched on that screen nothing happened so I had to press it again.
