SUMMARY
***
Sorry for choosing "I don't know" category.

The problem I encountered is that two component of plasma-workspace crashed when I was using VMWare Workstation. They are xembedsniproxy and gmenudbusmenuproxy.  I did not notice that until I ran command `coredumpctl list` in the terminal.

Here are the outputs from terminal

```
Sun 2023-09-10 19:19:34 CST 14357 1000 1000 SIGABRT present  /usr/bin/xembedsniproxy        460.7K
Sun 2023-09-10 19:19:34 CST 14342 1000 1000 SIGABRT present  /usr/bin/gmenudbusmenuproxy    469.7K
```

Here is the coredump stack trace of xembedsniproxy: https://pastebin.com/bTZbEnRx

#6  0x00007fd655f3f3f2 in init_platform (argv=<optimized out>, argc=@0x7ffe2133721c: 1, platformThemeName=..., platformPluginPath=..., pluginNamesWithArguments=...) at kernel/qguiapplication.cpp:1254

Does plasma desktop run normally? Is there any log from journalctl?

Lots of things are failing to find a platform plugin recently. :/ I've been moving them all to plasma-integration in the hope that someone smarter than me can find the root cause and mark them as duplicates appropriately.
