Thanks for the bug report.

Please start by deleting all local/unsupported extensions:

  cd ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/
  rm -rf extensions

and then log in again.

If the bug still occurs without the unsupported extensions then while it is happening, please run:

  journalctl -b0 /usr/bin/gnome-shell > shelllog.txt

and attach the resulting text file here.

summary: the default DESKTOP ICONS NG doesn’t work as it doesn’t show Desktop
- Icons/folder, so I have to install another extension named DESKTOP ICONS
- NEO made by mawi. This works fine. Even if both cases or if either one
- of them was/is working, I will see GJS. I have seen this. What to do?
- The only solution is I don’t use any extensions at all, which I don’t
- like.
+ Icons/folder
