> i figured out setting it to "META+F1" works with just META that part is somewhat expected > so it seems like it just reset over the upgrade that part is not. Can you please attach the contents of .config/kglobalshortcutsrc and .config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc ?
> Can you please attach the contents of .config/kglobalshortcutsrc and .config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc ? from before the upgrade and / or after the upgrade?
both, if you have those available
Created attachment 146014 [details] Config files before upgrade, after upgrade and after revert resetting Config files from 3 stages: - before upgrade - after upgrade - after reverting back (only root, not home) and re-setting the shortcuts to what they should be
