--- Comment #14 from [email protected] --- Hi, Tracy. I hope the [email protected] email address reaches you. If you can read this, please acknowledge this message by replying to [email protected]. I promise not to abuse your email address. ;-) I have no intention to reopen this issue. I just wanted to mention the following: I tried to configure the new account to look like my previous display and found multiple issues: 1. I use dual monitors. Until a recent monitor failure, they were identical resolution. Both monitors had icons of executables on the display. 2. Since the monitor failure, I have replaced the failed monitor with a significantly larger and higher resolution monitor. 3. The new account will not place icons for executables on both monitors. It only places these icons on the higher resolution monitor, even if I set the smaller/older monitor as primary. This is true with both Desktop and Folder display modes, but I didn't try to place a folder widget on the display that wasn't allowing icons when running Folder mode. I consider this non-allowance of icons on both displays in Desktop mode when there is a dissimilar resolution to be a bug, but I'm not going to push it. I'm going to slowly move multiple configuration files while avoiding pushing the configuration files that cause the buggy behavior that prompted the original bug/complaint. I appreciate all of your help. Thank you very much!Steve Garnier On Wednesday, June 24, 2026 at 03:21:05 PM CDT, TraceyC <[email protected]> wrote: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=520646 TraceyC <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|REPORTED |RESOLVED Resolution|--- |DOWNSTREAM --- Comment #13 from TraceyC <[email protected]> --- Thanks for the historical details, they confirm that old settings that conflict with or are no longer compatible with current KDE software are at play. At this point, it would be much easier to back up your documents, rename your current user, and then create a new user with your preferred login. You can then restore your documents and get going. Unfortunately, Plasma and KDE apps store many config files in different locations. It's nearly impossible to find out which settings are the problematic ones without diff'ing the files between your new test user and your regular user. Using a fresh account will resolve the issue. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
