having an issue with the dashboard where applications don't show app in the applications lense or when searched. Tried everything in these topics:
Applications not showing in Unity Dash
Dash (from Unity) does not showing Applications
But nothing has worked so far. Would really wat to avoid reinstalling everything since i use Vivaldi and there is no where to export my stuff from it. Using 16.04
Edit: All apps aren't being displayed, only show files and web results. Checked the filters: applications is enabled
Edit 2: after a reboot got a crash report, might be related since the culprit of the crash was unity-lens-loader. Will try to purge and see what happens.
Could not purge it, unity-lens-loader is not a package, it's a executable created by libunity9, should I purge and reinstall it?
