What is the output of xdg-user-dir DESKTOP It's /home/<my_user>/Desktop It turns out that '~/.config/user-dirs.dirs' was completely gone. The fallback '/etc/xdg/user-dirs.defaults' obviously is english-localized. I've run 'xdg-user-dirs-update', which recreated '~/.config/user-dirs.dirs' with proper locale EXCEPT for 'XDG_DESKTOP_DIR'. After manual adjustment desktop automatically reloaded and it's back to normal. F5 works correctly and causes no trouble. The refreshing itself may not be the cause of 'user-dirs' removal. I've manually renamed it and Plasma didn't notice it until I've refreshed the desktop. Only then it switched to non-localized desktop directory. Should I close this issue or is there still a chance of finding the real root cause? Requested info was already provided. >Should I close this issue or is there still a chance of finding the real root cause?
Not from this. If you can figure out what removed it, please open a new report. There's no plasmashell code that would.
