Comment 1 alerikaisattera 2024-06-09 06:08:30 UTC 
Fixed in newer version
Comment 2 alerikaisattera 2024-06-11 08:58:22 UTC 
Not actually fixed. Unlocking during passwordless unlock interval still freezes kscreelocker sometimes

Comment 4 alerikaisattera 2024-12-23 15:22:51 UTC 
Not actually fixed. There is still a small chance of this happening in Plasma 6.2.4, but it is much rarer
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2024-12-23 15:30:44 UTC 
That was most likely fixed by David Redondo with https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/6884. Can you test again with Plasma 6.2.5? Thanks!

Comment 8 alerikaisattera 2025-02-28 17:42:37 UTC 
This is still not fixed in 6.2.5
Comment 9 alerikaisattera 2025-03-30 16:37:56 UTC 
Seems to be fixed in 6.3
Comment 10 alerikaisattera 2025-06-02 13:09:02 UTC 
This bug occurs once again in 6.3.5 in a bit different way: rather than freezing, kscreenlocker can be be interacted with but cannot be unlocked
Comment 11 Nate Graham 2025-06-02 17:55:55 UTC 
Then it's a different bug; can you open a new bug report for it, and describe the new steps to reproduce and outcomes? Thanks!
