[Solved] XFCE desktop-icons gone.

Just upgraded the full set, -Syu
Started XFCE, and the shortcuts on the desktop are gone. My wife used to have a Home, and a Trash-link. But hubbli-hubbli-sim-sala-bim ;o)
Puts väck, as we say in Sweden. Anyone else experienced this?

Did you try starting xfdesktop manually?

He he, goodmorning forum masters.
'xfdesktop', that did the trick. And is now saved by the session. Wonder when that was lost in world of electromechanical whirlpool ;o)
Quite strange since nothing has glitched nowhere, and 'Astrid' does not know what a 'terminal' is, also not the accompanied 'task-manager'.
But now it's back. I think my wife thanks you alot, 'whoops' ;o)
