Getting a "normal" desktop at startup with Debian 12

A Debian 12 installed system starts up with a "selection" desktop like in screen11.jpg. I would like it to start as screen2.jpg. What settings should I change?

Here is some information and a link to download the extension to disable activies overview. I have not tried to install the extension.

The proposed extension installed on my system works as advertised. Thank you.
A less elegant but functional workaround is to use an autostart script as below, assuming that xdotool is already installed and that the x11 protocol is set (wayland disabled).

Code:
#!/bin/bash
xdotool key Escape
exit
