The preference "start fwbackups when I log in" breaks autostart when there is no folder named autostart #7

System Details

Issue description

When setting the preference "Start fwbackups (minimized) when I login" to enabled and there is no folder named ~/.config/autostart, fwbackups creates a file names autostart with the fwbackups.desktop contents in it.

Bug details

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. remove or rename: /home/username/.config/autostart
  2. open fwbackups and open preferences
  3. enable Startfwbackups (minimized) when I login
  4. your ~/.config/ folder now has a file named autostart

Observed results: ~/.config/autostart is a file with the contents of the .desktop file (and Gnome-tweaks/gnome-tweak-tool crashes because of it. bugreport: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-tweaks/issues/186)

Expected results: A folder named ~/.config/autostart with the fwbackups.desktop file in it.

Workaround: create a folder named autostart in ~/.config/ if there is none

Thanks for your bug report! I am going to close this as 1.43.8-rc1 has been released and as a part of the shift to GTK4, auto-start functionality was removed.
