Files on my Desktop are showing 2 times.

Whenever I'm adding a new file or folder, it's showing 2 times, OR copying file from any SSD or HDD to desktop, it's automatically showing double.

Please refer to the screenshot to check the original issue,

I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Check your Gnome Shell extensions. First install gnome-shell-extension-prefs if you do not have it already. Find and launch it by typing Extensions in the Applications overview. Disable your extensions one by one to check which one is causing the issue.

I suspect you may have two extensions active that manage the desktop, e.g. the default Desktop icons and Desktop Icons NG.
