System: Arch Linux Plasma: 5.10.2 Installed Packages: $ pacaur -Q | grep plasma kdeplasma-addons 5.10.2-1 plasma-desktop 5.10.2-2 plasma-framework 5.35.0-1 plasma-integration 5.10.2-1 plasma-nm 5.10.2-1 plasma-pa 5.10.2-1 plasma-sdk 5.10.2-1 plasma-workspace 5.10.2-1 plasma-workspace-wallpapers 5.10.2-1 Steps to reproduce: 1. Select a new WiFi from tray applet 2. Connect and enter password Expected behaviour: The WiFi is connected with provided password Actual behaviour: A pop-up window comes up and prompts the password again Description: Every time I try to connect to a new WiFi, a pop-up window always comes up to ask me for the password for a second time although I've inputted it in the tray applet. Screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/UCZZoQ4.png I'm pretty sure the password is correct (tested with copy and pasted to provide the exactly same password) and it seems that Kwallet is also working normally. Here are the logs: https://paste.kde.org/ptaupdmnq (before the empty lines were the ones from the failed try via system tray, after them were the ones from the successfully try via the pop-up window). The same thing happens to creating new VPN connections as well. For instance, after setting up a new VPN via "Connections -> Add new connection -> L2TP", I have to re-fill the password in "Connections".

I cannot reproduce this problem, for me it looks like a problem with KWallet, because if KWallet is not available or doesn't work as it should then the password won't be saved and that's the reason why you get prompted for the password again. Make sure KWallet is running and is enabled.
> I cannot reproduce this problem, for me it looks like a problem with KWallet KWallet is normally running in my case. I believe that if there's anything wrong with KWallet, passwords will not be able to be stored at all? I get the pop-up prompt for only a single time and then the passwords are saved normally. Should I try wiping all data and configurations of KWallet?
I still have the problem with Plasma 5.10.4. Wiping the wallet data did't help. $ pacaur -Q | grep plasma kdeplasma-addons 5.10.4-1 plasma-desktop 5.10.4-1 plasma-framework 5.37.0-2 plasma-integration 5.10.4-1 plasma-nm 5.10.4-1 plasma-pa 5.10.4-1 plasma-sdk 5.10.4-1 plasma-workspace 5.10.4-2 plasma-workspace-wallpapers 5.10.4-1
I rephrased the title. It was a bit unclear. The passwords *can* be saved, but I always need to input the password for a second time.
