you must enable the desktop
Rigth clic on desktop --> configure desktop--> at the first entry on top set "directories view" instead of "desktop"

Apply and ok

i think only for a clean desktop, i ever set the desktop on view directories, also on pclinuxos, kubuntu, opensuse etc ...

I do not remember exactly, but every distro can set the default desktop as it likes.

surely, for example, on PCLinuxOS is setting on "directories views" by default.
