Remove Gnome with its settings? (discuss.tchncs.de)

I'm using Gnome as DE and was really happy with it until my last update. I would like to re-install Gnome, but want to remove before that all Gnome stuff, settings and dependencies. This is no problem for the packages installed via pacman and also it's dependencies. But I fear that I don't know how to remove all relevant settings. Is there some special folder or set of files to remove, before I can start from scratch?

Many thx. Will try that as a second user, just in case that the current user block something.

My main issue is, that I can't shutdown or reboot from within the quick settings panel anymore. If I do that, applications do close, but the computer doesn't shutdown. However it's working fine from a terminal.
