I can't start Nautilus and Terminal and I need to type in my password when starting Chrome to access the password keyring.
When I go to Settings / Region & Language and change the Language from English (US) to English (GB) and then logout, login again and change the Language back to English (US) and logout / login again, I can start Terminal/Nautilus exactly once again.
After that I have to repeat this procedure to be able to start them again.

This is the output when starting the apps works:
The output of locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=en_US:en
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"

This sounds very confusing. Which language are you talking about? The display language or the keyboard layout?

Ok.. Can you please edit your question again and show us what these two commands output: 1.locale2.cat /etc/default/locale

Looks quite normal, which makes it very odd that switching the language back and forth makes a difference. I'm out of ideas for now.
