Running Plasma 5.18.

Suddenly, on pressing Win key, application launcher does not start!

How do I get that behavior back?

What did you change? It works flawlessly here


Running Kubuntu 22.10 with Plasma 5.26.3, Frameworks 5.100.0, Qt 5.15.6, kernel 5.19.0-23 on Ryzen 5 4600H, AMD Renoir, X11
FWIW: it's always useful to state the exact Plasma version (+ distribution) when asking questions, makes it easier to help ...

Can describe the problem better now.

The Application Launcher widget ONLY in the default panel works.

If one adds another panel, adds Application Launcher widget and removes the default panel, this widget does not open on pressing Win key.

Is this expected behavior?

did you log out and back in again? Some changes do not take effect unless you restart the plasmashell

Yes. I had done that.

The only Application Launcher widget that responds to pressing Win key is the one in default panel.

Sounds like a bug to me, could you please report this on https://bugs.kde.org against the plasmashell product?
