There should be a session file somewhere in ~/.config (sorry I have no
more details). Perhaps XFCE honors ~/.xinitrc, ~/.xsessionrc or some
of their siblings.

I use ~/.config/xfce4/xinitrc to set environment variables before XFCE starts:

#!/bin/sh
# ...
# settings needed before xfce start
export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH
export LC_COLLATE=C
# ...
# last line:
. /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc

Stephen, as mentioned earlier, the prompt should be settable in ~/.bashrc *if* it is sourced by ~/.bash_profile or ~/.profile so the more likely solution is to check that these files are not damaged.

Also check that the shell really is bash and not something else:

echo $BASH_VERSION
echo $SHELL

Kind regards,
