Can you define "sometimes"? In other screenshots you put on here you had a different wallpaper. Is this a different user account where icons are white and don't work?

my guess is that those games are installed onto the other HDD/partition that isn't automatically mounted at the startup

Maybe you installed the games using sudo? Did you check if the shortcuts have exexute permissions?
Vuko2000 Dec 16, 2016
Shortcuts works fine. they have all permissions. What I did even I pluged manualy .png Icons from game nothing helped. Its so annoying.
