[SOLVED] I accidentally copied a bash file replacing it with the .bashrc file in my Linux Mint. How am I supposed to retrieve the .bashrc file?

Issue

I was trying to place my bash file to the bin, but i copied the contents to the .bashrc file, replacing the contents of the original file. I would like you to help me get back the .bashrc file.

Solution

You cannot recover your custom .bashrc. But, if you want to restore it to the default .bashrc, you will find the one copied when creating a new user in:

/etc/skel/.bashrc
