Description Nikos Chantziaras 2012-01-05 19:30:48 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

By default, Plasma seems to create a task manager that has two launchers to the right of the K menu. One for Dolphin and one for Firefox (the Firefox one is totally invisible and has an empty pop-up help text.) When I left-click on those launchers and select "Remove This Launcher", they get removed but only for the current session. If I log out and then back in again, the launchers are brought back and I have to remove them all over again.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Remove the launchers, log out and then log in again.

Actual Results:  
The launchers are back.

Expected Results:  
The launchers shouldn't be there.

What is your KDE version and distribution please? I don't have these launchers in a  default panel here, self-build KDE 4.8 RC2.

Merging with bug 278724 as it's the same.

4.8 RC2.  "By default" means you need to "rm -r ~/.kde4".  If you updated from an older KDE, you're using your existing plasma settings, which means you're not getting the launchers.
