--- Comment #15 from pallaswept <pallasw...@proton.me> --- > I think the priority here is to make it not add subfolders/subfiles to the > config. Absolutely. Like I said in my post, items which never appear on the desktop do not ever need an entry in this file, and those are the ones that are causing the greatest part of the problem, after all, there are only so many items one can actually fit on the desktop, so hitting an amount sufficient to crash plasma would be very difficult if not for the fact that it's getting subfolders. > remember, people's computers are crashing Again I agree strongly with this. I've just made a comment on a case (384782, about being able to re-order taskbar items) where discussing *how* to do it has been going on for 6 years and nobody has done anything to make it *actually happen*. Time is of the essence here, let's not over-plan and under-do. > so just fixing the unnecessary > entries would be a good solution for now.

It would be a good start to a solution, and decrease the amount of crashes experienced by more than any other part of it, for sure. But as I also mentioned in my post, the positions entry is not handling removing entries correctly. The entries that caused my crash were for files that no longer even existed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
