By removing the file manager, removed the desktop. How do I repair or replace it?

Manjaro Xfce Lysia 20.03 Deleted thunar file manager, replaced with pcmanfm. I reboot and there is no desktop - one black background and my xfce panels. I realized what I did, installed thunar back, but again there was no desktop. in the desktop settings it is displayed: "The desktop manager is not active" - if I am not mistaken, (and this is still translated, I am mistaken))

I know that i can write in the terminal <pcmanfm --desktop>
But how to add this to startup
 
Open a virtual console: ctrl+alt+f1-f6(pick a number between 1 and 6)
Login: With your user account
Install the desktop environment of your choice: Install Desktop Environments
 
No, I don`t want to install DE.
I want to do pcmanfm my desktop manager(it`s translate).
Are you talking about that your wallpaper is gone? Can you make a screenshot of what you are seeing?

When i am startig up ALL ME DESKTOP (files, background) is not exist.
i am writing command pcmanfm #my file manager# --desktop(pcmanfm --desktop)
It exist (that`s translate) it born (very good translate)
On my country one man said that i can use this command is autostart. (or system configs)
 
I think I know what you mean now, you need to enable pcmanfm to autostart at login.
