So I've switched from 18.04 to 20.04, I copied my whole user data and recopied them back to 20.04. So that includes desktop as well, but now I cannot double click to open files, cannot move files to the Desktop from other folders, the Desktop reorganizes itself weirdly and stuff like that. I just installed the fresh 20.04 LTS.

Check you're the owner of all files under user data. Try this:
user@host:~$ ls -laR | less
if you see uid or gid differents from user, I think that's the problem. Try this
chown -R user.user *
Of course you have to change user with your user name in the exemple above
