Missing window frames on XFCE after update
Hi, I had to shutdown my machine due to impending power outage. Clever me I figured I'd update before shutdown to pick up whatever was new. Well, whatever is new since my last update on openSUSE Leap 15.5 messed up my XFCE settings. When I start a new application there are no window frames and everything starts in the upper left hand corner. Alt-Tab is not working to switch between apps Since there are no window frames I cannot move windows around. And there is only 1 workspace, albeit the workspace settings dialog shows that there should be 4, which is what I had setup prior to system shutdown. Any ideas?

Thanks, Robert Maybe you should try restoring your settings from backup? An update shouldn't have messed them up, but maybe that was just coincidence. -- Bob Rogers http://www.rgrjr.com/

Hi, Thanks for the tips. I ended up removing .cache/session, .cache/xfce4 and moved my settings out of the way .config/xfce4 then rebooted. That got me back to the default. Then I repeated the process but moved my .config/xfce4 back into place. After that things started working again. Well it worked, but this really shouldn't happen.

As a history major, I was assigned to write an in-depth analysis of the French Revolution, a topic that can be quite challenging due to its complexity and the vast amount of historical data available.

Not only did it provide a structured outline for covering such a vast topic, but it also highlighted the key events, figures, and ideologies that needed to be included in the essay. The blog's advice on creating a compelling narrative and integrating critical analysis was particularly useful.
