When dropping an Icon onto the desktop as an icon it will not start when you double click on it. Nothing happen.

Thanks for the bug report. In the future, please read through https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Issue_Reporting#Step_6:_File_a_high-quality_Bugzilla_ticket before filing more bug reports, as we generally need more information, and this will help us triage the issue more smoothly so it can get fixed faster!

I have some questions:

1. How did you create the icon?
2. Where did you drag it from?
3. Can you attach a screenshot of the context menu that appear when you right-click on it?

Dear Nate,
Better we close that issue.
Due to a lot of other "unexplainable" issues on my system I have erased it from the hard disc and installed it brand new. Now everything is working fine.
Mot likely during some kind of trials of my side, the system was contaminated with some rubbish which I cannot trace anymore.
So let's close it.
Thank you for your try to help me.

Best regards

Wolf
