What do you mean by resetting? In Plasma 5, configuration files are under ~/.config/, names starting with "plasma". Don't delete the plasma-workspace directory if you have scripts in there.

I made a few changes to to Plasma's settings (theming) and I'd like to go back to the defaults.

I'll try deleting those then, thank you.

Please note that you will probably need to quit Plasma itself before removing the configuration files.
This can be done using the kquitapp utility.

I deleted ~/.kde4 and anything related to KDE in ~/.local/share and ~/.config. That seemed to do the trick. Thanks for the help, I appreciate it.

Sorry to bring this old thread up again...

How about other Plasma5 related applications/frameworks settings?

The thing is that I test out Plasma5 at times by uninstalling KDE4 stuff, testing a bit and going then back to KDE4 if the results are not satisfactory.
Some time ago I did something that started to cause Plasma5 desktop to hang, removing .config/*plasma* does not have any effect on that issue (yes, the desktop itself being really reset to default, but that seems unrelated).
