Did you start nautilus by mistake? It usually takes over the desktop resulting
in what you described.

If you started nautilus, kill all processes of it and start it with the
„--no-desktop“ argument from now on.

If not: does the problem remain when you log out and in once again?

Or maybe you just killed xfdesktop? If so, just start it again.
