The solution that worked for me was to delete my Debian user login preserving my home directory. I created a new user so that all necessary config files are automatically created. Then, I tested XFCE4 whether it worked as expected. After that, I deleted all .* files recursively in my old user home directory. The command is:This was to make sure these files are recreated when I recreated my old user account. The final step was obviously to recreate my old user account. I used the command:This instructed adduser to create the user myloginname and use the home directory /home/myloginname.
This method worked. All other methods did not work in my case.
Code:
cd /home/myloginnamerm --recursive .*Code:
/sbin/adduser --home /home/myloginname --no-create-home myloginnameThis method worked. All other methods did not work in my case.
