Ctrl ALT F2 again. then try this:<br>
cd<br>
sudo chown R username:username .* *<br>
use the . before the * so it will pick up hidden files.<br>

Better use<br>
<br>
sudo chown -R $USER:$USER $HOME<br>
<br>
1. You missed the "-" before the "R".<br>
2. The ".*" would include ".." which is "/home". If there is more that<br>
one user on that machine, it would lock out all other users.<br>
