Hi William,xfce configuration files relevant to your user session are stored in your home dir.
you can more or less just delete / move the config files and they should get recreated upon logging in to a xfce session.
I searched on google for "reset xfce configuration" and found many posts like this:
https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=122332 "Open a terminal, back up your current configuration: Code: Select all mv ~/.config/xfce4 ~/.config/xfce4.bakThen either leave it like that, which will reset to a default Xfce desktop (no Linux Mint customizations), or copy the skeleton files with the following command, which will reset to a default Linux Mint Xfce desktop:
Code: Select all cp -r /etc/xdg/xfce4 ~/.config Then log out and log in again to effectuate the new configuration." I believe you good get results in such a way. It also might be just smth small which is broken.Could you describe "broken" some more? A panel might be hidden but u can access all xfce configuration panels by right clicking on the empty desktop open a menu, than applications follwed by settings.
Also take a look at the xfce project documentation, it's quite large with many screenshots to demonstrate the principles of xfce
https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/getting-started#the_desktop_environment Nearly everything is just a right click from configuration separated.You could also create a new user account with xfce configured as default session and copy your files over :)
Good luck :) Cheers, Martin On 2023-01-30 19:57, William Torrez Corea wrote:

My desktop environment has problems, the title bar is hidden.Well, William, from your extensive description of the situation, you may well have enabled full-screen or have a resolution problem. It could be anything. When did this first start happening? Is there any possible causative action you might have taken which initiated this behaviour? Cheers!The problem started 1 month ago. I don't know what caused the problem, a day logged in on my laptop and the desktop environment is ruined. I decided to change my desktop environment for gnome but I want to recover my old desktop environment XFCE. *What command is needed to show the error?* In this way I can supply more information about the problem. P.D: I search some help in https://wiki.debian.org/Xfce but the problem still exist
