Moving the close, minimize and maximize to the right side again

I just installed Wubi and Ubuntu 10.04 and love it!!
But I was used to the close buttons being on the right

type in the terminal
gconftool-2 --set /apps/metacity/general/button_layout --type string menu:minimize,maximize,close

you can also change it manually:

just type in terminal:
gconf-editor

then open apps -> metacity -> general
and change button layout on the right side to:
menu:minimize,maximize,close

I hope that is helpful

Could you explain how to change it back to normal, in case we try your suggestion and decide to put it back?
