Filtered it and Directory Watcher is running. Seems others > aren't having this issue anymore just me which is weird. > > Operating System: Arch Linux > KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.5 > KDE Frameworks Version: 6.6.0 > Qt Version: 6.7.2 > Kernel Version: 6.10.9-arch1-2 (64-bit) > Graphics Platform: Wayland I confirmed on my side the kded not running is not sufficient to explain the bug. The far-fetched hypothesis is inotify not working (it has a limited number of watches it can handde). That would happen if you have for instance an IDE without a lot of files/folders opened, or more generally a lot of applications. Or a specific that would be buggy. Or dbus not working properly/not installed. But without dbus a lot of other things would be degraded like any notifications. Given you are using arch they are a thousand ways to shout you in the foot. How custom is your arch install ? Did you use infamous plasma-meta package by any chance ? (I am using Arch myself).
