I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 19.04 ,previously I had 18.04.

In 18.04 the .desktop file worked normal, I was able to launch a tkinter app from my desktop but now I am not able to launch from desktop in 19.04 This is the file

[Desktop Entry]
Name = UrlSaver
Version = 1.0
Exec = python /home/raviteja/link/url_app.py
Icon = /home/raviteja/link/app_icon.png
Path = /home/raviteja/link/
Terminal = False
Type = Application
Categories=Utility;Application;

This same file worked in Ubuntu 18.04
