How do I reset my desktop back to what was there on a fresh install, or am I better off creating a new home directory and simply moving my "known" files back?
When I log in the screen flashes the icons (other accounts are fine) and the CPU goes to 100% with the "tracker-extract" process

Hi Jeff,
You *could*, I believe, uninstall GNOME and reinstall it. I think the command would be something like
sudo yum remove gnome-desktop
Then, you should be able to reinstall it with
sudo yum install gnome-desktop
But before you remove your desktop, do more research on this. I could be a bit off as to the repercussions of doing this and you could hose your system.
If others could chime in on this method, I'd feel much more comfortable lol
