I've somehow managed to get ride of my minimise, maximise and close button on my laptop. I use google chrome at the moment, but it's on all my programmes, not just on chrome - any help?

Open a terminal and type:

gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/shell/windows/button_layout --type string :minimize,maximize,close

  • I think penreturn means to say: gconftool-2 --set /desktop/gnome/shell/windows/button_layout --type string :minimize,maximize,close The change being "button", rather than "buttom". Sorry, couldn't edit the post with only one character change. – Andrew Johnson Jun 25 '12 at 19:06

To get my minimize, maximize and close button on my laptop (I use google chromium on Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail), I simply move my cursor onto the grey bar at the top and the buttons magically appear along with File, Edit, View, History, Tools & Help. I hope this helps. Regards Jim.
