Change in 'Enable launch feedback' setting is also not immediately applied to Favorites. Plasma needs to be restarted. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. right-click on Kickoff icon and choose 'Edit applications...' 2. search for an app present in the Favorites list of Kickoff and select it - tested on my system with Discord installed with a .deb package and Dolphin 3. change 'Enable launch feedback' setting 4. save the change 5. open the modified app via Favorites list of Kickoff: the change done in the step 3 did not take effect 6. restart Plasma by running 'plasmashell --replace' with krunner and open the app via favorites list of Kickoff again: now the change done in the step 3 works Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.95.0 Qt Version: 5.15.4 Graphics Platform: Wayland
