    The same problem happens for me,too and there's an very simple solution.
    The shortcut doesn't appear at the desktop but in my home folder.
    Open the file manager,go to your home folder and move the shortcut to the desktop folder.
    Now it should work.
    That happens only on my Arch Linux computer with Deepin Desktop Environment 15.5
    On my laptop with Deepin OS 15.5 it works correctly.

    The shortcut doesn't appear ...

    in Arch, it's easy to fix without manually moving shortcuts from home folder to desktop:

    sudo pacman -Sy xdg-user-dirs (and reboot)
    I've never experienced this problem in Deepin OS, only in Deepin DE on Arch, so I don't know how to fix it in Deepin OS.
