  • Could you give us more information ? you mean you tried the command "sudo systemctl set-default multi-user" ? so you have access to a terminal – Saxtheowl Mar 08 '23 at 21:03
  • Lubuntu is a *flavor* of Ubuntu and not a fork. It's built on the same Ubuntu infrastructure as Ubuntu Desktop, Ubuntu Server, Ubuntu Core & more.. just using a different seed file (for 22.04 or *focal* it was https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/seeds/lubuntu.focal/desktop). I'm not sure what you're actually asking for though; Ubuntu Desktop uses `gnome-terminal` ? is that what you want or something else? – guiverc Mar 08 '23 at 22:00

    Good work fixing your problem, but it would be great if you could still clarify the question to say more about what you did that caused the issue - that way your answer might be more useful to future readers - at the moment it is lacking context. – Zanna Mar 09 '23 at 10:13

I had edited some system files but found a fix

If you have root access to the terminal then run this command:

sudo systemctl set-default graphical

Or this one if you know your window manager:

sudo systemctl start "yourwmname"

And thanks to everyone who helped me.
