Inscrutable how? Which ones?

Let me guess: this is an upgrade from a previous version? If so, that's
bound to give you trouble. In fact, the release notes (you did read
those, right?) cautions specifically against it.

Did you notice [the manual][1] currently targets 18.10 primarily and
that it even has [a section][2] concerning upgrades?

Both of these things are handled by pcmanfm-qt, which is set to handle
them by default. This is done by invoking it with `/usr/bin/pcmanfm-qt
--desktop --profile=lxqt` which is done via
/etc/xdg/autostart/lxqt-desktop.desktop.
