Hello,
I do apologize if the question was previously asked but the search function did not provide me the solution.

Please, with Zorin 9, how could I remove the Home and the Trash from the desktop ? I am not new to Linux so I am confident with editing configuration files if any.

Many thanks

Hi, open a terminal (Ctrl+ Alt+ T) and install Gnome Tweak Tool:

Code:
sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool


After install, browse the settings on the left til you get to where you uncheck show home etc. ;) :D
