Hi,

I have two machines with Same Zorin OS.
on one of the machine, windows do not resize, it does not have a option to maximize or minimize. (Resize controls are missing)
Well, I see those option from the task bar, when right click on the task bar icon of the running application, but not on the application.

Please review the attachments.

I have tried changing resolution, but did not help.
added resize = true on the config file. i guess shell.cnf but no effect.
I restarted multiple times. I have updated to latest version but no success.
It Even happens when the error on the screenshot have not appeared.

Any help is appreciated.

In addition to Wolfman's advice, also make sure your updates are pointing to 'Main Server' - Software Updater - Settings button.

If still having issues try changing the Themes in Menu | System Tools | Preferences | Tweak Tool and then changing them back again in respect of Window Decoration.

Other area to check: CompizConfig Settings Manager under Preferences - make sure Window Decorations is checked. :D
