Do you have any folders called `com.google.Chrome` in `~/.var/app/` ? (In reply to Akseli Lahtinen from comment #1) > Do you have any folders called `com.google.Chrome` in `~/.var/app/` ? Sorry, I forgot about this. I installed it, so now I do. Uninstalling and removing data from Discover deleted the folder, but I guess that doesn't help. These folders are still there, even though I didn't install the corresponding apps: io.gitlab.librewolf-community io.github.ungoogled_software.ungoogled_chromium org.chromium.Chromium Okay can confirm, I have the same bug with librewolf. It seems the base image comes with the folder pre-set, with the plasma-browser-integration-host script in there. To me this seems intentional, but will forward it to the KDE Linux folk, just in case. But I think it's safe to delete these folders if you do not plan on using them. |
