I am having this problem on Ubuntu 18.04 -- I manage a batch of desktop machines with some convience desktop launchers, which gnome3 insists are "untrusted". With some general websearching reveals that this is a *GNome3* so-called "security" issue (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/commit/1630f5348). I found a thread on the CentOS Forums (I don't have an account there), where another sysadmin is strugling with this issue:
https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=65864&start=10
If anyone has come up with a script that can be dropped into ~/.config/autostart/ to "fix" this "feature" of gnome3 I would be interested in it.
Hi,
Just chmod +x the desktop files.
That is NOT the problem...
That or teach the users how to do things correctly.
Oh, yeah, you really think I am going to get very far telling *non-techies* to:
- Open up a terminal (right-click on the desktop and select "Open
Terminal") 2) Type at the shell prompt (huh? what is a "shell prompt")
/usr/local/bin/arduino &
OR gnucash &
OR
scratch &
These happen to be the three desktop shortcuts I am providing. Yes, the last two can be found by searching through all available applications, if they know what to look for. It is so much easier to say: click on the light blue-green infinity sign for Arduino, click on the pile of money for GnuCash, or click on the scratch cat for scratch.
Hi,
- Do not jump to caps and shout at me. Not polite and will not get you
anywhere.
Ok, go back to a debian based list and learn how to bundle the applications yourself. This way you can supply all the required desktop files. If you cannot do this, get another job.
I would test this on debian stable as I was the author of the backported security patch. However, I am not inclined to do so.

Hi,
You could always try gio setting the metadata for trust. A little google gave this thread that may help.
