  2. Remove Linux Desktop Icons

    I am not sure whether this will work (Ubuntu does not have icons like that on the desktop by default), but I suggest opening the trash bin and sweeping the icons into the window showing the trash bin.

  3. Some icons will not display properly

    Hi,

    Having blank application icons on your desktop can be caused by many factors such as file corruption, icon cache issues, and more. To narrow down the issue, we need to ask a few questions:

    • Were there any changes made to your computer settings prior to this issue?
    • What troubleshooting steps have your done so far?

    Meanwhile, we suggest that you reset the Windows Explorer process from
    Task Manager which may correct this type of issue. Below are the steps to do it:

    • Right-click on your task bar, then choose Task Manager.
    • Highlight Windows Explorer on the Processes
      tab.
    • Click Restart.

    You can also try running the System File Checker tool and
    Deployment Image Servicing and Management
    with the steps on this
    link
    . This will scan and correct system file corruption which may be causing your icons to be blank.

    Keep us updated on the status of the issue.

    Regards.
