My nautilus doesn't used to respond So for restarting I used nautilus -q or killall nautilus
How to restart nautilus without logging out?
But both the commands didn't worked for me
So I killed the process manually and it worked for me without restarting my system
ps -ef | grep nautilus
kill -9 ID
you can try both to see if it helps whenever you are facing the issue again

That doesn't work. I recognized that also the menus in all unity windows (also application windows) are without the text. Perhaps it is another thing to restart?– janloApr 7, 2017 at 11:17

I thought its nautilus only (Incase you haven't found this) See this link looks like its a bug bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/… Also temporary workaround was also there in the comment Switching between terminal ALT+CTRL+F1 then ALT+CTRL+F7– AbhishekApr 7, 2017 at 12:00
