How to enable Unity again?

rated 0 times [ 11] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 27956 / 1 Year ago, wed, december 14, 2022, 11:46:05

After installing Ubuntu 14.04, I installed compizconfig-settings-manager. Then I made a mistake and disabled the Unity plugin. After that, Unity (the dash and panel ...) are gone.

I can't even run the terminal now.

What should I do? How can I restore or reset it?

Solved!

I had a link to home folder on my desktop. So I opened it and I went to /usr/bin/ from location bar. Then I started gnome-terminal.

In terminal I opened ccsm (compiz config manager) and enabled Unity Plugin again.

And now it works normally!!

What an awful weakness this is for a desktop OS, isn't it?

Shouldn't it have a default thing for these situations to run (automatically)?
