lovin Budgie. But after I did an upgrade to 20.04 all my panels (the part where I can do something like “open file”, “open options” and so on) in my programs are missing (see screenshot plz) and I can’t find any place to change that behaviour.
The icon in the decoration was removed very late in the development process by GNOME devs. I’m guessing they have removed the code itself - or at least disabled it.
in some app’s - like Nemo or Firefox - the [ Alt ] key may trigger the « classical » menu.
In some other app’s, that same menu is hidden behind an icon, 3 vertical or horizontal dots or 3 parallel lines, most often at the right of the title bar.
The app menu is missing in every Gnome-Application and there are no burger menus or something similar. So what I did was to add in my panel settings the Global Menu Applet. So the missing menu entries are appearing within my upper panel:
That is a workaround right now, but I think this is not optimal for a longer time. Especially when you open a programm like Gimp were there are a lot of entries in the panel and not all can be seen.
Can you try changing the themes? Maybe that solves it… I don’t know if you download themes from the internet … not all of them are compatible … the original ones from Ubuntu Budgie, like Pocillo, should be, though …
No there were any errors when I upgraded the system or when I used the mentioned commands.

is there any possibility to backup the settings first? It took a long time to config the panel as I want.
And when the reset isn’t working I will loose all my settings what would be fine when the reset brings me back the app menu.
