This means that a part of the application is broken, likely due to a botched update.

Can you try to launch it using the command-line by typing `plasma-discover`? That should show the window and also print a bunch of text into your terminal window. Can you please paste the text here?

I've run plasma-discovery, then I clicked on the "Updates":

Ah, this is a Neon packaging issue. You can fix it by installing qml-module-org-kde-sonnet manually, if you haven't gotten an update that fixe sit yet.
