Does not sound right, we don't intentionally change or install default configurations in the user directory. They were all minor bug fix updates > I did then downgrade but that did not help.

Have any logs or anything that could help narrow down which package may have caused this? > We should at least warn before the update (if that's possible with > zypper) to create a backup of ~/.config/xfce (something I have done > before retrying the update ;-) The path is ~/.config/xfce4. Our configs do not wipe nor override user configs. You're sure is not a non xfce package wiping your configs? xfce4-panel-profiles allows you to save back up copies of your panel configs.
