Question #219099 on Cairo-Dock Core changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/cairo-dock-core/+question/219099

    Status: Open => Answered

Fabounet proposed the following answer:
I'm not sure to see the problem, but here is whay you can do if you want to
start with a good base:

delete all cairo-dock config:
  rm -rf ~/.config/cairo-dock
and then restart the dock.

you wil get the default theme, with few launchers and the Applications
Menu. From this one, you can add programs in the dock. You can also remove
the one you don't need by dragging them out of the dock.

You can also select a theme from the theme manager, to start with something
that suits your needs better.
