If you do have another terminal available, open it and run these commands
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get remove xfce4-terminal hit enter, type in you password when asked and wait till it finishes, once it does run
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install xfce4-terminal hit enter and wait till the install process is done and that should be it. If don't have another terminal installed on your system, you can remove and reinstall xfce4-terminal or install a new terminal via synaptic.

Hope this helps! :)

Did you try via teminal or synaptic? Well, that means terminal's configuration is bad so you'll have to purge it
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get remove --purge xfce4-terminal* hit enter, type in your password when asked and wait till it finishes. This command will remove-purge everything related to xfce4-terminal, once it's finished run
Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get install xfce4-terminal wait till it finishes, try and see if it works as expected now.

In your home folder, press Ctrl+H. Now go to .config/xfce4/terminal and delete the terminalrc file.

Thanks, Jerry!
Does it regenerate itself on each launch? Or the app just writes a blank one with the defaults?
Might be useful to have different settings saved with different names...
