no desktop icons / desktop right click menu

Hi all, i hav a fedora 42 on a dell optiplex and i installed XFCE due to lightweight needs the whole system works well but the desktop is totally empty if i right click on it, nothing happens i tried to restart in debug xfdesktop and i see a strange message : "xfdesktop_thumbnailer xxxxx .desktop not supported

i totally removed both xfce and lightdm, removed the user and .config/xfce4 folder and reinstalled it but no luck

if i try to change background image i recieve a "unable to load images from folder "(null)"

libyaml is installed and updated

i'm using a fedora 42 build ,xfce 4.20 using X11 Theme and Icons Adwaita

Intel i5-7400, 8gb ram , 128 GB HDD

thanks!
