I'm new to Linux world. Recently I've installed Kubuntu and I don't know how to move icons on the desktop. When I drag an icon from applications (start menu) and drop it, I can't move it anymore. For example, if I drop it in the middle of desktop, I can't drag it to left corner. Seems like icons are locked. What should I do?

Right Click
at the Desktop, Unlock Widgets
. Or Lock Widgets
, and then Unlock Widgets
back again.
Then Pull not by the icon itself but by its little horizontal panel.
See at the picture:

Why oh why do you need to unlock this??? Just remove the lock / unlock function, it is totally useless and unecessary. Jun 16, 2020 at 19:00
Right click on Desktop. Select "Enter edit mode". Now you can move or resize the icons as you wish.
After you moved your icons, exit edit mode.
