    Status: Open => Answered

actionparsnip proposed the following answer:
Recovery mode is reachable by rebooting, when grub loads, press ESC

select recovery mode for any kernel then select root, you will now have
a command line interce

You can then type

cd /home/<user name you login with here>
ls -a

You will then see all files, you can then rename the folders with

mv .gnome .gnome_old

for example, there will be others too, you want to rename all the
.gnome* folders and .gconf* folders

Once all renamed run:

shutdown -r now

and the system will reboot
