I am using ubuntu 16.10. When I create any folder in the desktop the icon is invisible. I know the folder has been created because it is visible in nautilus or from the terminal. Same issue when trying to copy icons or files to the desktop. My desktop is just blank.
I tried tweak tool>Desktop Icons. It is ON.
