How do I restore the Templates folder in Ubuntu 18.04?

Solution 1:

By default, this folder is empty.

It is declared for Gnome Shell in this file

~/.config/user-dirs.dirs

Where should stand the line

XDG_TEMPLATES_DIR="$HOME/Templates"

Of course, the Template Folder name depends on your locale and language

If the line has been removed because off the deleted folder, you will just have to create a new one and add the line.
