Some blip, it appears, caused the shutdown and wifi applets to disappear from the top menu. No amount of searching the applets produces either of these as a choice. I installed Gnome Tweaks but it offers no controls in this regard. I also tried sudo apt-get install indicator-session  
also to no avail. Is there a way to either restore the original top panel or add these two applets?

thanks

To reset the panel run

```
nohup budgie-panel --reset --replace &
```

I tried that and got

nohup: ignoring input and appending output to ‘nohup.out’

The panel did not reset even after logging out

FYI Tried to reset again using “nohup budgie-panel --reset --replace &” Terminal came back with “nohup: ignoring input and appending output to ‘nohup.out’  
[1] Done nohup budgie-panel --reset --replace”

It took three tries to get the “done” message, and then it restored what I had lost.

I was making adjustments to the top panel again and lost some elements I want and could not find to add them back in. So I reset the panel again and got this

$ \*\* Message: 18:30:54.402: manager.vala:562: Resetting budgie-panel configuration to defaults

\*\* (budgie-panel:4572): WARNING \*\*: 18:30:56.163: BudgieMenuWindow.vala:190: Software has no parent directory, not adding to menu

The top panel is restored until I log out of terminal.

What’s up with this?

thanks

Sounds like you have uninstalled something budgie was expecting.

Check by installing the critical packages again:

```
sudo apt install --reinstall ubuntu-budgie-desktop budgie-desktop-environment budgie-desktop-common budgie-desktop budgie-core libbudgietheme0 libraven0 libbudgie-plugin0 libbudgie-private0

```

logout - login then reset the panel again:

```
budgie-panel --reset --replace &!

```

Logout and login again.

Before I received your repeated nohup budgie-panel --reset -replace &. This time it worked. I will keep your additional instructions in case I have issues again.

Thank you very much for your assistance
