the file was .bck , so i executed 'rm -rf .config && mv .config.bck .config' first. Then this command "$ mv .config/gnome-session .config/gnome-session.bck" was showing error that particular folder does not exist. So, after reading the old comments carefully, i understood that
i first renamed .config to .config.bck.
then logging in automatically created a new .config
so you would have wanted me to first executed 'rm -rf .config && mv .config.bck .config' and then to create a new .config folder and shifted files from .config.bck to .config graphically. i was able to log in everytime after all files were shifted..

I may have misunderstood the instructions, so please comment.

Also, i am attaching a new log file.the old one was from the guest user id.

Also want to thank you for answering with a lot of patience details, the tab function is of great help.

Lastly, as this operation is taking a lot of our time, would you recommend i just redo the configuration settings on the old user or create a new user . Is there any fundamental problem which could reoccur in future if i do not find the fault file ?
