Created attachment 183595 [details] screenshot of KRunner showing Recent Queries After clearing history in the settings KRunner still shows "Recent Queries" as shown in attached screenshot.
Can confirm. If I restart KRunner (or the computer) the history is gone as expected. So the issue is that it doesn't update to reflect the changes until re-launch.

RunCommand: disable history drop-down button when there's no history Depends on https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/krunner/-/merge_requests/206, so it's 6.6 material. ### Reason for the change It's awkward when clearing the history — either all at once or one item at a time — doesn't prevent the history popup from getting opened. ### Test plan 1. Open KRunner 2. Click settings button 3. Click Clear History… > For all Activities 4. Re-open KRunner 5. Try to how the history popup ### Bugs fixed FIXED-IN: 6.6.0 M +1 -0 krunner/qml/RunCommand.qml https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/commit/25eff7e58aea58c61ee76fadf1702f52d0d9e945
