I will ask 2 questions this time.
First
There are tons of questions here about tray icons in elementary but none of them work in my fresh Elementary 6.
One of them was like this:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yunnxx/elementary
sudo apt update
sudo apt install indicator-application wingpanel-indicator-ayatana

But it didn't work. I had error like this:
The following packages have unmet dependencies: wingpanel-indicator-ayatana : Depends: libwingpanel-2.0-0 but it is not installable E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Then tried Namarupa but it didn't work too.

How can I fix it on Elementary 6?

Second
I don't like double-click in file manager of pantheon. In Elementary 5(Settings>Tweaks),there was a option for it but in Elementary 6 I couldn't find it.
How can I enable single-click?

I fixed it this way...

1º Install dependencies: $ sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev libgranite-dev libindicator3-dev libwingpanel-dev indicator-application

2º Download: $ wget -c https://github.com/Lafydev/wingpanel-indicator-ayatana/raw/master/com.github.lafydev.wingpanel-indicator-ayatana_2.0.8_odin.deb

3º Install: $ sudo dpkg -i ./com.github.lafydev.wingpanel*.deb

4º Edit file: edit file 'indicator-application.desktop' and then add "Pantheon;" in "OnlyShowIn=Unity;GNOME;"

$ sudo nano /etc/xdg/autostart/indicator-application.desktop

5º Reboot.

  • I couldn't find anything about single click in Elementary Odin too but I "solved" it by using nautilus since pantheon is based on gnome. Thanks for your great answer. It really worked for me.

For the second question, elementaryOS 7 (Horus) adds an option in Files to switch between single- and double-click modes. Just right-click in the Files window and there is a new option: "Double-click to Navigate"
