copy all XFCE related settings to another user

Hello!

My profile is "corrupt" (whatever this means - some things ar no longer working) and for other profiles everything is ok.
This happened, after I was forced to hard shutdown tht box, because the logout failed.

Looking at the users homedirectory is really a big PITA, it is like on windows .... and I will never know, what I need.
Even if I can copy the XFCE related settings to a new profile, the remainer would probably make a big headdache ...

Probabyl the is something like a backup/restore utility for the XFCE settings?

Thanks anyway,
Manfred
