This is a known issue to be fixed with nautilus-3.14.1. This happens when you enable "show desktop icons" from gnome tweak tools.

A workaround is to kill the nautilis from terminal and it starts working. Do like this from terminal:

$ nautilus -q

Now nautilus (Files) opens properly and desktop icons are also visible.

"Renaming "/usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop" to "/usr/share/applications/Nautilus.desktop" also is a workaround.

@Thomas_Do: Thank you so much for that. This idiocy has been bugging me for weeks.
