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!

    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.

    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
