That's what I was hoping the screenshots showed (or didn't show).
I was asking because if the wallpaper is missing too, then the issue isn't
actually that your panels went missing; the issue is that the entire desktop
containments that the panels live on went missing!
So in Plasma 5.27 we implemented a new system for mapping Plasma desktops and
panels to screens that is fundamentally more correct by design, and as a result
much more robust; ths idea was to prevent this from happening anymore. We also
added code to migrate old settings to this new system. Unfortunately, due to
the non-determinism baked into the old system, the migration code works better
the simpler your arrangement of screens, desktops, and panels was. For complex
arrangements, we've seen a few reports that sometimes panels or desktops are
swapped or missing, as a result of the old settings being in an inconsistent
state at the moment of migration. We do have a UI to recover them in the form
of the "Manage Desktops and Panels" window, which should let you manually
restore your old setup. You can access it like so:
Right-click on desktop > click on "Enter Edit Mode" > a toolbar pops down from
the top of the screen > click on "Manage Desktops and Panels"
Can you use this to recover your missing desktops and panels?
