Hi @NDC07!

  1. Please, open Nautilus, press Ctrl + L and copy and paste `/usr/share/applications;
  2. Open any of these desktop files with text editor (Gedit), press Ctrl + F, type "Icon=" and copy it and paste here.

If these desktop files are not there in /usr/share/applications:

  1. Please open Nautilus and go to your name folder;
  2. Press Ctrl + H, and select the folder .local > share > applications.

If they are not either, then they can be snap-built apps:

  1. Open Nautilus, press Ctrl + L, copy and paste /var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications
  2. Copy all the desktop files to your_name/.local/share/applications
  3. Open each desktop file with Gedit
  4. Change the hard-coded icon to normal name without extension for format, for example, in the case of Inkscape:
Icon=/var/lib/snapd/snap/inkscape/4274/share/inkscape/branding/inkscape.svg

for

Icon=inkscape
  1. You need to remove, running as sudo, all desktop files from /var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications to clean the duplicates.
