NAME

       gnome-cleanup - cleans GNOME user preferences

SYNOPSIS

       gnome-cleanup

DESCRIPTION

       gnome-cleanup  erases  all  GNOME  user preferences, returning the user to the default look and feel. This can be used to undo an undesired
       preference setting, or to correct the desktop if the preferences become corrupt.  The GNOME preference files  are  automatically  recreated
       the next time the user logs into a GNOME session.

       gnome-cleanup  displays	all preference files that it will delete before erasing any files, and prompts the user to confirm that they would
       like to erase these files. Files are deleted only after receiving a positive confirmation from the user.

       gnome-cleanup cannot be run while logged into a GNOME session.  Users should run this program when logged into another session,	for  exam-
       ple, the Failsafe session. If the user tries to run this program while logged into GNOME, an error message is displayed.

OPTIONS

       None.
