Hello all, I am brand new to fedora, so Im still learning the ropes. I’ve been noticing this red number 1 next to the file manager in the dock. Being a debian/ubuntu guy at heart, I don’t quite know how to troubleshoot this. Hope you guys can shed some light; pic is below!
Warning: No matter what anyone tells you, do not use any
rm
command with the-r
option and/or any wildcard charachers like*
and?
, unless you understand the command fully.Sound advice.
Completely agree although I love rm -r since it’s way better than cluttering up my trash folder 😄
Clicking delete while pressing shift should do the same thing in most file managers, just use it with caution
Good to know, thank you
but I heard rm -rf /* made my computer faster. (This is a joke never run this command. (outside of a vm that you are willing to kill))
You have 1 notification concerning Nautilus, be it a file copy was completed or the like. If you click the notification center (the Date/Time on the top bar) and clear out your notifications there the 1 should go away.
Yup that did it. but when I report the errors, nothing freaking happens. it just loads and loads and loads and hangs.
Which errors are we talking about?

Right click on the 9 dots button -> Dash to dock Settings > Launcher > Scroll down > Show the number of unread notifications
It’s a notification counter, kinda like phones have.
That’s part of the Dash to Dock extension I think. Go to the Dash to Dock settings in the Extensions app. There should be settings in one of the tabs for notification icons/badges or something similar.
I had this too, I think it’s a bug. It’s a notification counter from dash to dock, like the other user said. I disabled the counter completely to get rid of it
I think the issue stemmed from my failed attempt to install deepin desktop. I removed the DE, but im sure there were lingering files or apps
