You need to do some of your own work. Garry gave you good leads. Tell us what you have done and where the problem is. Be specific.

There is a solution posted at that topic, Why is it not a solution ? Did you even look at it ?

You don't even mention what version of Debian you are using, nor the version of Gnome,
Nothing to go on, nobody is going to be able to answer this , like it is.
Besides that, it is a Gnome issue, and would be better to ask them, for all I know
it is another "new feature" the Gnome developers added, and there is no way to create any short cuts on Gnome Classic any more.

One of the many hits in the search :

The above, is for Gnome 3.6, or is it some other version ?
There are many, and they all have different instructions,...

Sorry, I'm not sure it's the same a launcher than a "shortcut"...
I use Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 64-bit with Gnome Classic 3.22.2 version.
I just managed to create the recycle bin launcher at desktop (

Code: Select all

gnome-tweak-tool
).
