Nothing is encrypted. I should point out that /home is a separate partition to root, but on the same hard drive. Most of my data is on other hard drives.

Hey David,

Do you have encrypted home folders enabled? If so it could just be
failing to mount your home using encfs for some reason.

Sometimes my home folder is missing. When I boot up and get to the login

straight back to the login screen. And just now my home folder literally just 
disappeared. I can see other user folders in  /home but not for my current 
user, although I am still logged in.

I am using Ubuntu Studio 12.04 XFCE and it is up to date, the last updates were 
applied this morning, although the problem has persisted for a while now. 
Although today is the first time I have lost my home partition while logged in.

This is a real nuisance. I can see home folders in the same partition for other 
users (from other distros I have installed on the same PC) but not my own.

Any ideas why it keeps getting hidden and how to prevent it getting hidden?
