I have phpstorm, datagrip, and pycharm installed on my machine. When I click on any of their icons in my favourites bar (which up until now worked) the cursor goes into a loading state, then the name appears along my top bar, then nothing.

No error messages appear, I've tried restarting the machine, I've done a snap refresh, I've even tried uninstalling and reinstalling phpstorm.

I can see no java processes on my system monitor.

I can open phpstorm however by navigating to the bin folder:

~/PhpStorm-202.7660.42/bin$ ./phpstorm.sh
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: Option UseConcMarkSweepGC was deprecated in version 9.0 and will likely be removed in a future release.

After this warning it starts up, and I can see a java process in system monitor.

I am looking to have the icons in my favourites bar working again, as doing this every time I want to open my IDE is tedious (and I'm not even sure how to run datagrip using the terminal, that's really slowing me down this morning.)

I highly suggest you to use JetBrains Toolbox (download) over snap, the issues here are that snap and GUI integration aren't great at all so icons can be broken at any time (and official realeases are 99% of the time more up to date that those on package manager)
