SUMMARY The activities sidebar doesn't allow me to switch activities unless I restart plasmashell (typically I do plasmashell --replace, but there might be a better way.) STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Log into Plasma 2. change activities with the sidebar OBSERVED RESULT Nothing changes. EXPECTED RESULT Plasma goes to the selected activity SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.12.0 Qt Version: 6.8.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I can use KRunner to change activities before restarting plasmashell, but not always. sometimes, KRunner will simply refuse to display the activity I'm searching.
I'm not able to reproduce this on git-master or Plasma 6.3.3 Set the right side of the screen to show the Activity Manager STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Log into Plasma after a restart 2. Show the Activity Manager, click on a different Activity Result: When I click on any of the Activities, the desktop switches to that activity. Does this happen with a brand new user?
A new user works fine. My setup is quite old (I had the same bug with Plasma 5, ~2 years ago), so maybe there are things in the various configuration files that aren't used any more, but I don't know where to start looking.

From what I see, you can try renaming this file: ~/.config/kactivitymanagerd-switcher And then logging out and logging back in. Does that help?
Logging in and out wouldn't help determine if a change would work. Your latest comment reminded me of my old way to solve it, years ago, which was logging out then in again. I tried your suggestion followed by a reboot. It didn't help.
