Description Alexander Potashev 2021-09-01 16:49:30 UTC 
SUMMARY
Clicking Apply does nothing in the KDE Wallet KCM when I have no permission to edit settings ("You are not allowed to save the configuration" in the caption.)

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Systemsettings -> "KDE Wallet" KCM
2. Uncheck "Enable the KDE wallet subsystem"
3. Click Apply

OBSERVED RESULT
The "Apply" is now greyed out (cannot click it again), nothing else happens.

If I then attempt to close the systemsettings window, an Apply-Discard-Cancel dialog opens. If I respond "Apply" to it, I get the "Permission denied" popup.

EXPECTED RESULT
1. A "Permission denied" popup should be displayed.
2. The Apply button should stay enabled (IOW clickable).

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.5

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Not sure why I'm "not allowed to save the configuration", but that's probably a different questions, see bug #356624, bug #429274.

Workaround:

Create file ~/.config/kwalletrc with the following content:

```
[Wallet]
Enabled=false
```

> when I have no permission to edit settings
In what circumstance does this happen? When using a non-administrator user account? Is the issue still reproducible for you at all?
