How can I reset Compiz settings to default?
Execute the following command and then re-login:
rm -rf ~/.compiz-1 ~/.config/compiz-1
The script is now bundled with Unity Tweak Tool. You can install it using
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:freyja-dev/unity-tweak-tool-daily
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install unity-tweak-tool
To reset Unity, do
unity-tweak-tool --reset-unity
You probably are missing this last command:
unity --reset-icons
