  • Installed directly, Nemo comes with cinnamon desktop dependencies. To install it without such dependencies, un-install it, then try this solution here.

Elementary has no icons on the desktop, like yours, so you should have installed another file manager, such as Nautilus or Nemo. This is the reason for two icons for files.

About the second question, you should have installed Dropbox, so take a look at :

dropbox for elementary os

    from my experience, Nautilus doesn't trigger this, but Nemo does.

  • Additionally, having two "Files" apps means that there are two launchers that are named "Files", which indicates two different file manager apps installed on the system. Mar 2, 2017 at 0:55
