STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. create a .desktop folder for trash bin on desktop or home folder 2. drag and drop files into it/delete files 3. the .desktop file is gone from the desktop. OBSERVED RESULT no matter how many times I make the desktop file, it always happen the same. I also tried making a symlink to the .desktop file but have it placed on my home folder, ending with the same result and behavior. EXPECTED RESULT keep the .desktop file or symlink to it on my desktop. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.1.0 Qt Version: 6.7.0 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION the data used to create the .desktop for the Trash on the desktop is the following: [Desktop Entry] Comment=Contains deleted files EmptyIcon=trash-empty Icon=trash-full Name=Trash OnlyShowIn=KDE; Type=Link URL[$e]=trash:/
if you make the .desktop on any other location and symlink it to the desktop, it will end with the same results.
I have the exact same issue. A link to trash on desktop is present after reboot but after a while disappears.
