Shortcuts appearing for uninstalled apps

Open George4All opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

I downloaded some flatpak apps (Spotify, Super Tux, Minecraft Bedrock, Minecraft and Tanks Of Freedom). I uninstalled most of them, as I didnt need them for some time, but unfortunatley, Tanks of Freedom's shortcut is appering for 3 times, and when I open it, it crashed immediatley. When I reinstalled it another shortcut appeared (totalling to 4 shortcuts of the same game)

Sorry about that. The shortcut is created right away so my guess is that the installation failed to complete properly and you ended up with multiple "copies". I will have to try to make it more resilient.

A work around would be to edit the file ~/.local/share/steam-shortcuts/steam-buddy.flathub.yaml and manually remove the extraneous shortcuts. You can do that from the command line with ssh or through ftp.
