Hammer & Screwdriver Where's the XFCE folder?
If a few of you look on FedoraForums, you'll find that a little while ago, I went on a desktop installing spree. I just have a small question about XFCE desktop. In my user directory, I see .kde, .mate, and .trinity. (all three are directories), but I have XFCE 4.8 installed along with the others. I don't see where my XFCE prefs folder is. I found online awhile back that if you delete the desktop prefs folder (in my case at the time, it was .kde) then it will set your preferences back to square one. If I do something stupid like delete a panel instead of close a window, how to I reset XFCE?
