After upgrading Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04, I found that my desktop icons keep popping up and disappearing in 1 second intervals rendering the desktop unusable.
Looking in the process monitor, is see that this process is repeatedly starting and closing (accompanied by apport):
Chasing the error down with journalctl -f _UID=1002 , I see the following error repeatedly:

This is stuck in a loop until I disable the extension via gnome-extensions disable ding@rastersoft.com.
It is worth noting that this only happens on the non-admin user accounts.
