(Solved) Nemo side panel problem

Post by kasydo »

Hi everybody,
I have a problem with one icon in the side panel(My Computer).
I wanted to move a file and i drop it not at the good place; I add it to my computer and i cannot remove it.
I have two Bureau but one doesn't serve.

See attachment
I download dconf but doesn't find what to do...

Thanks

Thanks

First run this command

Code: Select all

gsettings reset org.nemo.preferences desktop-is-home-dir
The open the second file in your text editor.

Code: Select all

xed ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
And make sure the line..

Code: Select all

XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/"
is

Code: Select all

XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/Bureau"
Save the file, log out and back in. Both Bureau links in the sidebar should hopefully now work and you can delete the one with the regular folder icon (right click > remove)
