Created attachment 156914 [details] Screenshot of "About this System" and "Show More Information" side by side SUMMARY *** In "About this System" in kinfocenter module, a "Show More Information" button is present, but it doesn't actually present more information about the system. *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Start plasma system settings 2. Go to "System Administiration" -> "About this System" 3. Press button "Show More Information" 4. Verify that the "more" information is actually a copy of the same KCM module view OBSERVED RESULT See attachment. Left hand window is what was launched when pressing the "Show More Information". Thankfully another "Show More Information" button isn't present in the new window, thus not enabling a loop of new needless windows. EXPECTED RESULT Either actually seeing "more" information, or simply no such button at all. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: 6.2.0 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.103.0 Qt Version: 5.15.6 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kinfocenter/-/blob/master/Modules/about-distro/src/package/contents/ui/main.qml#L161-169
Well, it opens the full Info Center app which does show you more information on other pages. ...Just not on its landing page, which is the same as the one shown in System Settings. Maybe we can massage the wording a bit here.

Git commit 20f62bdc56be09f69f5d580af3d6e3c520b3c062 by Nate Graham. Committed on 05/03/2023 at 23:15. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. Rename "Show More Information" button to "Launch Info Center" It actually doesn't show you more information--at least not immediately. This is because it launches Info Center, which displays the very same page you came from by default. Let's rename the button to set user expectations accordingly.
