No desktop icons after uninstalling nemo

rated 0 times [ 3] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 3043 / 2 Years ago, fri, july 15, 2022, 5:46:09

I tested nemo on Ubuntu 12.04. I made it the default file manager. When I uninstalled it, desktop icons disappeared and I can't do a right click on desktop to open menu.

How can I make Nautilus the default file manager, may this solve the problem ?

You can try with launching dconf-editor then go to:

org -> gnome -> desktop -> background

and put the tick on show-desktop-icons as explained in the image below:
