Apple apps not respecting order, Other folder keeps appearing #5

Closed negebauer closed 1 year ago

negebauer commented 4 years ago

I have the following Launchpad order

image

Which I save and then load again. After that it looks like this

image

The Photos, System Preferences and Xcode order is not respected and an Other folder is created (I think it's the default folder where apple apps are placed, when saving the launchpad config again the Other folder is not mentioned). I have to manually order the apps again and add and remove something to the Other folder for it to disappear.

Any ideas what might be happening?

macOS 10.15.6

same here, hope to have some walkaround

blacktop commented 1 year ago

I think there's something weird/special about the Other folder? I haven't noticed this because I actually use the Other folder. I could use some help debugging this as there might be some flag or something in the SQlite DB that allows the Other folder not to exist?
