Hii, am fairly new to ubuntu-linux.
While I was trying to drag the Desktop icon to the places sidepane in nautilus file browser so that I can have it above Documents icon, I accidentally dropped it in Documents icon. I immediately deleted the "Desktop" shortcut that was created in "/home/user/Documents" but it was too late already and the damage has been done. When I try to create a new document on my desktop, it says
"Error while coying to Desktop
There was an error getting information about the destination.
Show more details
Error stating file '/home/user/Documents/'
Desktop':No such file or directory"
Now, I know that my desktop now is pointing me to a location in Documents folder which doesn't exist at all. I tried looking for any available settings/options in gconf-editor, but only in vain.
Is there a way to get my desktop back at all ? :confused:
Thanks, in advance for your help and time.....
