Fresh profile
Log out, open TTY 1 (CTRL-ALT-F1), log in with your p-number.
Go to /home and delete the dot files and folders, or your whole /home directory (Back-up your important files first).
After you delete your home directory the system will create a new and fresh profile for you when you login again.
This command forcibly removes all dot files and directory and their content from your home dir:
rm -rf ~/.*
Switch back to your window manager (CTRL-ALT-F7) and log in again.
