Some applications run perfectly fine, however, they do not show any icon in the taskbar as shown below:

Screenshot of the taskbar

Notice that all the running applications have icons except the last one (see the arrow) where the application runs perfectly.

When I search for the application to run it, it has an icon, but once it is running it has no icon in the taskbar.

What is wrong? how can I fix that?

I have solved the issue, thanks to this answer

I had just to add the following line to .desktop file of the application:

StartupWMClass=XXXXX

Where XXXXX is the name of the application in lower case without quotes, obtained by running xprop WM_CLASS on the terminal and clicking on the application window.
