  1. Edit the file “60x11-common_xdg_path” located at /etc/X11/Xsession.d by executing the command “sudo nano /etc/X11/Xsession.d/60x11-common_xdg_path” in terminal.
  2. Press the keys Ctrl + w and search for export XDG_DATA_DIRS. It would be somewhere around line 22, depending on the settings in your machine.
