How to Reset the Panel to Default

Open a Terminal and type the following

gconftool –recursive-unset /apps/panel (All panels will disappear)
rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/panel
pkill gnome-panel 

Here's a script to fix all your panel problems = ) It will reset your panels to the ubuntu default and make sure everything is running properly.

BEFORE YOU RUN IT, however, open:

/etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf

Now find:

[ifupdown]
managed = false

And change the second line to:

managed = true

Download this script anywhere, double-click it, and choose "run."

  1. !/bin/bash
  2. Doing these first two lines is probably overkill, but we want to reset the panels to default no matter the cause.

gksudo apt-get purge gnome-panel indicator-applet-session gksudo apt-get install gnome-panel indicator-applet-session gksudo restart network-manager gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/panel pkill gnome-panel
