Reseting Linux Lite Desktop (2.2 32-Bit) back to Default?
#6
Theoretically it's possible. If you are willing to test this in a VM Scott(0) this is what I have in mind:
First I would back up ~/.config/xfce4 and ~/.config/xfce4-session just in case

Code:
cp -r ~/.config/xfce4 ~/.config/xfce4.old
cp -r ~/.config/xfce4-session ~/.config/xfce4-session.old
And if something goes wrong you can restore the folders.

then kill the panel and xfconfd and copy xfce4 xfce4-session from /etc/skel/.config
/etc/skel there are the files that are used when a new user is created. skel like a skeleton for the new user.
Here is one-liner
Code:
xfce4-panel --quit ; pkill xfconfd ; rm -rf ~/.config/xfce4; rm -rf ~/.config/xfce4-session ; cp -Rf /etc/skel/.config/xfce4 ~/.config/xfce4; cp -Rf /etc/skel/.config/xfce4-session ~/.config/xfce4-session ; sudo reboot
After reboot it should work. In theory. Smile
I'm not sure will indicator plugins be as they were on first boot.
Cheers
