This happens to me too on Debian 12 + testing repository, so Plasma 5.27.9 and Frameworks 5.107
It's very annoying!
Especially when you have many shortcuts, like I have, to folders (Home, Trash) tools, programs, games, etc.

Comment 9 fanzhuyifan 2024-02-02 19:02:40 UTC
If possible, could you check if this issue still exists on plasma 6? The least disruptive way to try that would be using a neon unstable live boot ISO, so that you don't need to modify the existing system. On arch it is also offered in the kde-unstable repo https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Official_repositories#kde-unstable

Currently plasma 6 is in RC2, and the actual release will be sometime in February (https://community.kde.org/Schedules/Plasma_6)
Since plasma 5 will no longer receive updates, and since plasma 6 had received many updates and fixes, it would really appreciated if you could check if this bug still exists in plasma 6 -- I personally did not reproduce this on my plasma 6 setup.

Comment 13 cggoody5 2024-02-02 19:27:19 UTC
ok im trying to add the kde unstable line to pacman.conf line. how should it look? 

there has to be a spac e between the include line before general options right?

i just rejoined arch of this yr. so im a bit rusty from debian, lol.
Comment 14 cggoody5 2024-02-02 19:49:35 UTC
i got it figured it out.
Comment 15 cggoody5 2024-02-02 20:01:20 UTC
got i got it installed. it seems to work if you lock in place.
Comment 16 cggoody5 2024-02-02 20:23:48 UTC
where do you find the icon lock in place besides right clicking on the desktop>icons then lock in place. where do i find that in system settings? it changed the locations of where they at and such.
Comment 17 cggoody5 2024-02-03 00:06:41 UTC
seems to be fixed now. so i think whatever happened is now fixed.
Comment 18 cggoody5 2024-02-03 04:30:43 UTC
