SUMMARY
just noticed that when I right click on the desktop, to eg, create a folder or file, it shows an unusual quantity of entries, instead of the default ones. based on the names of the files and folders, it seems it's reading data from recent files and folders, something it should not do. this didn't happen before plasma 6.2.x.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. right click on desktop
2. select option create new
3. it shows files and folders that should not be there + base filetypes and new folder

OBSERVED RESULT
odd behavior

EXPECTED RESULT
menu shows only new filetypes and new folder

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.7.0
Qt Version: 6.8.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
bug wasn't present on plasma 6.1. blurred part of the screenshot is the list of files and folders that shouldn't be there, as those are not a type of data to be used to create new files or folders.
