I choose one app in its folder, the folder screen is closing and then nothing, I'm on application menu and my selected app is not lauching.

of course, renaming the sortcut in /usr/share/applications to original name make the app working again but .. :/
The reason it doesn't work is because the desktop file is used to launch the application. If you rename/move it, then the desktop file will not be found.
