Are there any error messages when you run plasmashell?
Comment 8 Nate Graham 2022-01-20 23:17:52 UTC
Cannot reproduce. Can you paste the output of `grep -A 50 org.kde.plasma.kickoff ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc` from a terminal window?

Hey Nate,
I attached the output of the command you requested. Let me know if you need anything else thanks!

Hmm, I was looking for a hardcoded list of runners in that file, but I don't see it. No idea what the issue is then, sorry. :(
Comment 11 Alexander Lohnau 2022-01-24 17:08:42 UTC
Does the issue persist when you restart plasmashell?

>kquitapp5 plasmashell; plasmashell


It might be worth trying to launch the applet standalone (to get more useful logs)

How to reproduce:

I had the default panel on 2 monitors. when I removed the kickoff menu from the second panel, The first kickoff menu started preforming normally.

I added the menu back to the panel on the 2nd monitor and the bug came back. 

I removed the menu on the 2nd screen once more and kickoff is working as it should again.
Comment 13 Nate Graham 2022-01-25 17:06:21 UTC
Ohh! The fact that you have multiple monitors is relevant. That makes this a duplicate of Bug 443131, which is already fixed in Plasma 5.23.5
