Broken/Incomplete Gnome desktop

Either:

2. Find the faulty application

If you don’t know which application failed – this is usually the case on a system or graphical failure – a good place to search the culprit is in the system journal .
Supposing the failure occurred in the previous boot:

journalctl --boot=-1 --priority=3 --catalog --no-pager

Or if applicable:

@maycne.sonahoz

Supposing the failure occurred in the previous boot:

journalctl --boot=-1 --unit=<service_name> --no-pager

From there you can use grep to filter things; i.e., if maybe GNOME Shell is failing:

journalctl --boot=-1 --priority=3 --catalog --no-pager | grep gnome-shell

A handy GUI program we have in the repos might help you as well: qjournactl.
