    I accidentally sent my message to the wrong list, I intended to send
    it to the xfce list and hit the wrong address.

    I got essentially the same answer there:

        Of course you can:
        cp /home/user1/.config/xfce /home/user2/.config/
        chown -R user2:user2 /home/user2/.config/xfce

             

    That information enabled me to clear a couple of problems.

    Thanks for the help.
