This is one of the first things I thought, but, as mentioned in my original message, I replaced MY configs with those of another user (and chowned them to me), and this made no difference. > You could try a diff between your configuration and another user ( > do not only compare pcmanfm's files, it could be related to other > stuff ). > > Or a longer but reliable technique: > 1) move all your configuration files into another directory, so that > the system won't be able to find them. > 2) Run pcmanfm. I'll try this. So far, I'd only tried replacing the configs, not just simply making then unavailable. ... okay, moving the .config/pcmanfm contents to somewhere, thus leaving the directory empty (no configs) seems to make no difference. > > You need pcmanfm-dbg to have symbols, it might help.
