STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Try to find "Background Services" in systemsettings 2. Search Reddit for clues, go over 6.1 changelog with microscope. 3. Find that it's now "hidden" OBSERVED RESULT "Background Services" is nowhere to be found, requires manual invocation via CLI EXPECTED RESULT Useful features are not unexpectedly "hidden" by a point release, at least not without a prominent entry in the changelog and instructions wrt the expected method for accessing the feature. "[kcms/kded] Hide." is neither, and leaves the user with no indication of what "hide" really means or how to "unhide" it.

The change was made in 6.1 (not 6.1.5), which is a feature release, not a bugfix release. The change was intentional, as you've discovered. I'm sorry you don't agree with the change. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 489332 ***
