I have discovered that I do not have a file ~/.config/dconf. Perhaps the

Well since the proposed fix was to delete it and let dconf recreate it then
no. It should have been created automatically. What does
ps -aux|grep dconf
show? I suspect it will show that dconf-service is not running.
It returns the line
"ken 5074 0.0 0.0 14004 964 pts/2 S+ 17:45 0:00 grep dconf"
Also can you reboot then run
cat /var/log/syslog | grep dconf
to see if there are any dconf messages in the log
"sudo cat /var/log/syslog|grep dconf" returns nothing.
and
ls -al ~/|grep \\.config
to check the ownership and settings on .config
I am not sure what you are looking for with this command, but it simply
returns the following line:
"4.0K drwx------ 9 ken users 4.0K Jul 22 11:17 .config/"
If what you are looking for in a list of the directories and files in
~/.config, here it is.
