Desktop symbolic link removed on restart on MacOS Catalina
For a decade, I've been syncing my Desktop using Dropbox by running the commands:
sudo rm -r Desktop
ln -s Dropbox/Desktop Desktop
I then see the files inside `Dropbox/Desktop` on my Desktop. Since installing MacOS Catalina, this stops working every time I reboot. The symbolic link is deleted and an empty Desktop folder is restored inside my user directory.
How can I get Catalina to preserve the Desktop symbolic link across reboots? Alternatively, how can I get Dropbox to sync the contents of my Desktop folder without using this kind of symbolic link?
Thank you for those links. Dropbox's change in handling symlinks is unrelated because I keep the "real" Desktop folder inside the Dropbox folder. The solution was provided by niazy lower down the thread:
After creating the symlink to my Dropbox desktop folder, I locked the link file by displaying its info and checking the 'Locked' checkbox.
I still create the symlink as shown above but then set it to "Locked" to have it preserved between reboots.
I would recommend not moving this thread to make it easier to find via search. Thank you for the link to the thread and to niazy for the solution.
Hey dankohn, I understand that youâd need some help to re-configure this setting; letâs have a closer look together!
If I were in your shoes, Iâd start off referencing the relevant resource. Since this isnât something we officially support however, Iâd need to point you towards other Community membersâ workarounds on this & this discussion that could help shed some light on your options moving forward.
I hope that this helps & please let me know if youâd like me to move your initial post under either of the threads above or you need further assistance from me in any way!

Hey dankohn, I understand that youâd need some help to re-configure this setting; letâs have a closer look together!
\n
\n
If I were in your shoes, Iâd start off referencing the relevant resource. Since this isnât something we officially support however, Iâd need to point you towards other Community membersâ workarounds on this & this discussion that could help shed some light on your options moving forward.
\n
\n
I hope that this helps & please let me know if youâd like me to move your initial post under either of the threads above or you need further assistance from me in any way!

Thank you for those links. Dropbox's change in handling symlinks is unrelated because I keep the \"real\" Desktop folder inside the Dropbox folder. The solution was provided by niazy lower down the thread:
After creating the symlink to my Dropbox desktop folder, I locked the link file by displaying its info and checking the 'Locked' checkbox.
I still create the symlink as shown above but then set it to \"Locked\" to have it preserved between reboots.
I would recommend not moving this thread to make it easier to find via search. Thank you for the link to the thread and to niazy for the solution.
