Welcome to the forum!
I believe your issue in the first place would have been, if you were using steam from a flatpak, you can use Flatseal to change permissions of flatpaks (in this case steam) and allow it access to ~/Desktop.
As for your current issue, even though there are red Xs there, do the links still work? I'm assuming this would also be a permission issue, but i'm just curious if it works at all currently.

Actually x was "not a problem", it just asked me to activate "enable launch" and it worked normally
Well glad to hear it was a simple thing then! Happy gaming
