Hey, the panel crashed once - I could bring it back using xfce4-panel in dom0. But now I have to do it everytime I boot, so the panel doesn’t appear automatically. Is there a way to fix this? Greetings :slight_smile:

Panel is gone User Support

@Qubes_User171 should start terminal in dom0, execute xfce4-panel. Panel will show up. Then it is needed forcibly to close the terminal regardless of the warning. The panel will disappear and reappear in a flash second. It usually happens when using context menu while on panel which somehow triggers closing the panel without the warning.
