On Manjaro, from Konsole ... -- begin paste -- killall plasmashell #to stop it kstart5 plasmashell #to restart it -- end paste -- ... and presumably on Debian-based (Ubuntu-based) systems (which I haven't actually tried) ... -- begin paste -- killall plasmashell #to stop it kstart plasmashell #to restart it -- end paste -- For those who want to see the transcript from the terminal ... -- begin paste -- $ killall plasmashell $ kstart5 plasmashell Omitting both --window and --windowclass arguments is not recommended $ org.kde.plasmaquick: Applet preload policy set to 1 Warning: all files used by qml by the plasmoid should be in ui/.
