I've never used "Desktop" folder in my home directory for anything and I would like to remove but it always recreates itself when I delete it or hide it. It's pretty sticky.
I've also tried include folder into .hidden file, editing user-dirs.conf in /etc and /etc/xdg but with no success.
It reminds me every day that I'm not able to get rid of it :-)
Thank you for any information.
