Hi all
I install some windows games via wine.
At desktop appeared desktop entries,
but it marked with an exclamation mark.
How can i get rid of exclamation marks?
P.S.
OS= Fedora Linux 38 x86_64
DE= LXQT
At Cinamon no exclamation mark.
Try to validate the problematic launchers:
desktop-file-validate "$(xdg-user-dir DESKTOP)"/*.desktop
[kiril@HPNB Desktop]$ ls -l

[kiril@HPNB Desktop]$ desktop-file-validate *.desktop
[kiril@HPNB Desktop]$

Let’s check the contents of one of the launchers:
cat -A "$(xdg-user-dir DESKTOP)/Дело о морской капусте.desktop"
$ cat -A “$(xdg-user-dir DESKTOP)/Дело о морской капусте.desktop”
[Desktop Entry]$

It seems like the exclamation mark is a feature of pcmanfm-qt (the LXQt file manager, which also handles the desktop icons).
Trusting executables - lxqt/pcmanfm-qt Wiki:
By default, executable files are not “trusted”, which means that a prompt dialog will be shown if the user (double) clicks them. Desktop entries (files whose real names end with
.desktop), that are not inside~/.local/share/applicationsor/usr/share/applications, may have a special emblem on their icons, showing that they are not trusted
If you right-click on the desktop icon, there should be an option “Trust this executable”.
indeed…
