ok I think I get what
you're saying.
You don't want the MSD card to show up on the desktop.
If that's the case, you can do this..
Add the storage media applet to kicker, then to go to configure, then media
tab and choose which ones you want to show up on the desktop. In medium type
you can choose what type is chosen, when mounted or not etc.
Sending images...
As you can see from image 1, I don't have any of the SSD partitions (there are
3) showing up on the desktop. Everything else will automatically show up.
Let me know if this is what you're talking about. We are hitting a language
barrier. English is me second language, Gaelic is me first.

Made from the same old fashioned cloth.
I do the same, I use the UUID to setup function specific names.
I also use costum names for partitions and removable drives.
UUID requires knowing it first, so that's fine if you always use the same
removable drive(s)
My "point" (or rather remark and question) is this:
I usually set up the Desktop so that when I plug in a card or stick it is
automatically mounted AND appears on the desktop. This works well on
desktop computers.
As I said, Raspberry Pi, but also many Laptop I use use or can use some
micro-SD card as mass storage. Typically my Toshiba Z20T uses the internal
card for / and /home, but most data live on the SD card.
If I set the computer up as my desktop, I can plug in a USB stick and it
will appear on the Desktop - but then so does my micro-SD card, which I
would prefer not to see there.
If I untick "mounted removable media", then my micro-SD card no more
appears, but then neither does my USB stick.
I know how to find where it has been mounted, it's just inconvenient...
I think there is no way to change that, I just wondered if anone had a way.
For example, MacOS hides partitions with names starting with .
