When I run the command for system settings in terminator

Every time System Settings > Workspace Theme > Desktop Theme is opened, it immediately follows in a crash.

On Arch KDE, used sudo pacman -S plasma to download.

Actual Results: The entire System Settings application crashed.

Expected Results: System Settings opens the Desktop Theme gui in the application.

Build Date & Platform: KDE 5.10.4 (Kernel:4.12.3-1-ARCH) 64-bit

Installed the Breeze theme.
Ended up reinstalling Plasma with pacaur -S plasma. Bug still occurred.

When I tried running the systemsettings5 application in the terminal...

When you get this crash, a crash dialog window should appear. Please add the backtrace from the "Developer Information" tab to this ticket. You might need to install 'gdb' before this works.

Sorry, I completley forgot about it :/
The bug reporter applet described it as a "useless" back trace, so I didn't think to include it.
I apologize

Well, I should have read comment #0 a bit more properly...

The error is:

org.kde.kcoreaddons: Error loading plugin "kcm_desktoptheme" "The shared library was not found."

This means there is a problem with your packages. Please report this to the bug tracker of your distribution.

 Thanks :) I really dont see how the Arch repository could screw that up, but I'll take it to them. I'm just glad its not a bug with KDE its self!
