SUMMARY
Hello,
I have a srange problem since Plasma 6.2 with a white square in the upper left corner. It's not clickable and it can't be identified in any way. I tried to close every single process to no avaul. Even "systemctl restart --user plasma-plasmashell.service" but it doesn't help as well. The only way to remove it is to restart. It appears rarely and I don't know what triggers it.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. I don't know the steps to reproduce it. It just appears from time to time.
2. 
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
A white square in the upper left corner.

EXPECTED RESULT
There shoudn't be a white square in the upper left corner.

I forgot to mention - it's always there, eben in games.

Comment 4 Mozo 2024-10-21 11:44:44 UTC

Even in games*

That's very odd. Does right-clicking on it have any effect? Can you drag it around?

Does this issue reproduce in a new clean user account?

Nope, it can't be identified and cam't be clicked. I don't know if it's reproducible for it happens very rare and I can't find what triggers it. I think it'll be beter to close the issue so I can't be of any halp than what I already gave as info.

If you say so, sure. It does seem quite odd. Please let us know if you ever figure out what it is!
