Hello,

This morning my computer is very slow to start KDE plasma.
Some updates have been installed but for some unknown reason, taskbar is not displayed.

I tried:
kquitapp5 plasmashell && kstart5 plasmashell

But nothing changed (no taskbar with menu, icon, clock).
The result was:

Code: Select all

kf.coreaddons.desktopparser: Unable to find service type for service " Plasma/PopupApplet" listed in "/home/alain/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/com.librehat.yahooweather/metadata.desktop" - service type search directories were ("/home/alain/.local/share", "/usr/share/plasma", "/home/alain/.local/share/flatpak/exports/share", "/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share", "/usr/local/share", "/usr/share", "/var/lib/snapd/desktop")

it's weird as again some QML command has been changed in KDE code.

hello,
I had the same problem. by removing ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc (or renaming for backup purposes) I managed to make it work
best regards,
Manfred
