Hi, Baloo is creating 2 baloofilerc, one in $HOME/.config/baloofilerc and the other in $HOME/.kde/share/config/baloofilerc Both files are different: :~$ diff .config/baloofilerc .kde/share/config/baloofilerc 5,6c5 < dbVersion=1 < exclude filters=CMakeCache.txt,autom4te,*.loT,.obj,_darcs,confdefs.h,libtool,*.swap,CVS,CMakeFiles,.xsession-errors*,*.pyc,*.tmp,.uic,CTestTestfile.cmake,Makefile.am,.moc,lost+found,moc_*.cpp,*.nvram,lzo,config.status,*.omf,conftest,*.rcore,*.elc,*.m4,*.orig,*.csproj,*.o,litmain.sh,*.pc,*.aux,cmake_install.cmake,*.moc,CMakeTmp,confstat,CMakeTmpQmake,*.class,.hg,*.part,ui_*.h,*.la,.git,*.po,__pycache__,*~,.svn,core-dumps,*.rej,*.gmo,.bzr,qrc_*.cpp,.pch,.histfile.*,*.lo,*.vm*,po --- > exclude filters=autom4te,*.rcore,CTestTestfile.cmake,*.o,*.omf,*.swap,.hg,*.m4,*.orig,.obj,moc_*.cpp,conftest,.pch,.xsession-errors*,CMakeTmpQmake,*.tmp,qrc_*.cpp,po,.svn,.histfile.*,lzo,.bzr,.git,litmain.sh,cmake_install.cmake,CMakeFiles,*.pc,*.nvram,*.elc,*.la,.moc,CMakeCache.txt,confdefs.h,*.gmo,*.csproj,*.rej,config.status,lost+found,confstat,*.pyc,_darcs,CVS,.uic,*.part,libtool,*.aux,*.po,CMakeTmp,Makefile.am,*.lo,ui_*.h,*.loT,*~,*.moc,*.vm*,*.class,core-dumps 8c7 < first run=false --- > first run=true I don't know the exact Balloo component responsible of this behavior, so if there's some info you do need to delimit the problem, please tell me. Regards. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.

Are you sure these don't date from different installs, such as upgrading a kde 4 machine to Kde Plasma 5? Have you checked dates on the files ? I have only one baloofilerc on a fresh install of Manjaro (arch) linux.
I have only one file, too. This could be some artifact of older versions.
