Menu shortcut doesn't show up on Tails (.desktop file incorrect?)

[decipher-random]

So the menu shortcut doesn't show up on tails and supposedly it did before > https://xmrguide.org/tails/gui/install/manual

The desktop file was generated in monero-gui.desktop/live/persistence/TailsData_unlocked/dotfiles/.local/share

This is what the generated desktop file by the appimage created:

Name=Monero GUI
GenericName=Monero-GUI
X-GNOME-FullName=Monero-GUI
Comment=Monero GUI
Keywords=Monero;
Exec=/home/amnesia/Persistent/Monero GUI/monero-gui-linux-x64-v0.18.1.2/monero-gui-v0.18.1.2/monero-wallet-gui %u
Terminal=false

StartupNotify=true
X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Bugzilla=GNOME

This is what default electrum.desktop file looks like in tails

Comment=Lightweight Bitcoin Client
Exec=sh -c "PATH=\"\\$HOME/.local/bin:\\$PATH\"; electrum %u"
GenericName[en_US]=Bitcoin Wallet
GenericName=Bitcoin Wallet

you've enabled the Dotfiles feature correct?

*edit - i'm creating a tails bootable usb to verify

*edit - after following the guide step by step (ensuring to enable dot files) i see Applications -> Monero GUI. Works perfectly.

Only things ive noticed are the guide links to an older version of the GUI and could benefit from updating the link to v18.1.2 / hash.

@plowsof yes, I have enabled dotfiles on the persistent volume storage. Aswell as verified the GPG signature of the donwload Monero-GUI v18.1.2.

*edit - after following the guide step by step (ensuring to enable dot files) i see Applications -> Monero GUI. Works perfectly.

Thats weird I have been using dotfiles for a longtime. I do have custom dconf settings being persisted as and autorun dotfile that Disables GNOME Animations amoung other things like:

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface enable-animations "false" 
# Disable recently-used files in file manager
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.privacy remember-recent-files "false"

and removing/adding different favorite sidebar apps

gsettings set org.gnome.shell favorite-apps "['tor-browser.desktop', 'tca.desktop', 'thunderbird.desktop', 'org.keepassxc.KeePassXC.desktop', 'org.kde.kleopatra.desktop', 'org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop', 'org.gnome.gedit.desktop', 'org.gnome.Screenshot.desktop']"  

idk if this is the issue? Could you tell me if the monero-gui.desktop has the same output besides the Exec and Catagories= cause I forgot I added Finance; before Network; in Catagories to see if that fixed the issue but apparently not.
