Toot

Does anyone have any tips on how to fix the user interface of a #RaspberryPi running #RaspberryPi OS?

I recently tried upgrading the OS version, since I found out that a new version was officially available. But rather than doing a clean install, I followed instructions I found online for how to do an in-line update (basically changing over the repository versions).

I changed over the repositories, and downloaded all the updated packages. But after installation, the desktop environment looked corrupted. The PIXEL desktop environment appears to have been replaced by LXDE (which I now understand is what PIXEL is based on), the background is a generic Debian background, and the taskbar is blacked out and the "start menu" button is missing.

I'm prepared to just re-image the SD card with a fresh install of the latest RPi OS, since I'm not knowledgeable enough about this to know how to fix it.

@Intaglio_Dragon I've just done this 2 nights ago with no issues (I was 2 versions behind). Try running raspi-config from the command line
