Having upgraded from F26 to F27, my main user has lost functionality of some features of the new control center.

$ gnome-control-center

Actual results: Missing functions and icons of new control center


Expected results: All new functions should be present


Additional info: New users do not have this problem

I did a clean install of Fedora 27, which fixed the issues. However, restoring user data using Deja_Dup resulted in the same behavior upon next login. Therefore, which files are responsible to user settings in gnome-control-center?

what functions and icons are missing ? Your screenshot doesn't tell, and the warnings don't either

The problem was created by previous version of program "Alacarte" Restore System Configuration has restored missing functions to gnome-control-center
