Bug description

When I start Nextcloud Desktop v3.14, it doesn't work. Nothing happens. The following error appears in the CLI:

Failed to initialize instances shared memory:  "QSharedMemory::handle: doesn't exist"
QGuiApplication::setDesktopFileName: the specified desktop file name ends with .desktop. For compatibility reasons, the .desktop suffix will be removed. Please specify a desktop file name without .desktop suffix
nextcloud.gui.application: Migrating old config from "/home/jvt038/.local/share/Nextcloud" to "/home/jvt038/.config/Nextcloud"
nextcloud.gui.application: Failed to move the old config directory to its new location ( "/home/jvt038/.local/share/Nextcloud" to "/home/jvt038/.config/Nextcloud" )
nextcloud.gui.application: Will move the individual files QList("Nextcloud_sync.log")
nextcloud.gui.application: Fallback move of  "Nextcloud_sync.log" also failed
