Bug description:
  Seems similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xdg-user-
  dirs/+bug/1708569 , but that one was already fixed several years ago.

  When installing from scratch the daily build of Questing (25.10), and
  logging from GDM into the Gnome Shell session, the $HOME folder lacks
  all the XDG folders. This results, among other obvious problems, in
  Desktop Icons not working (the DESKTOP folder doesn't exist).

  Just opening a terminal and running `xdg-user-dirs-update` fixes the
  problem. But, of course, this isn't a solution for the average user.
