Hello, I am using Manjaro KDE distro on my desktop without any problem but on my laptop I have always some freezes. I have to shutdown by pressing power button for 10sec.
And this problem only appears on KDE Distros. With Linux Mint or Ubuntu I don´t have this problem.
I tried different kernel from 4.19 to 5.18 all LTS but nothing improves the situation.
The thing is I don´t know any command that will show the probem in a journal.
Looking forward for your help 
I just get a double freeze in 5 minutes.
I am posting the result of this command: journalctl --boot=-1 --priority=3 --catalog --no-pager

Hope someone can understand the problem 
this looks like the freezes could be because of baloo… go to system settings/search/file search and unchek all the options, click apply and see if it helped…
I don’t thinks there is anything relevant in there…
Just checking: did you actually force reboot as described before searching for those logs? Since you extracted logs from the previous boot.
It may also be relevant to monitor CPU, RAM and disk i/o usage for any resource consuming process.
I did deactivate baloo but it still freezes today :

Yes I force reboot and then type the command.
Do you have an idea, how to solve this? Brahma´s solution did not work
How I do that ? Is it possible to keep data after boot?
You can use the system monitor and applets shipped with KDE Plasma.
You can also save the monitoring into a file. This will create a rather big file on the long run, so you should modulate the frequency of update (in seconds). For updating every 30s:
top -b -d30 > ~/top.log
Use Ctrl+C to kill the process.
provide also system info:
inxi -Faz
When I started to use Manjaro KDE 10 months ago, I always got the whole system freezed at simple launch any game (be this ARK or even Rocket League) and the only thing I noticed after updating all graphical drivers (Nvidia, proprietary) was missing swap partition or file by default after installation (I also got this in KDE System Monitor), so when I create it, for my 8GB DDR3/1333 it was the fix I needed.
If your problem is RAM this also may help you too. You can just start the Recourse Monitor and watch at this before system freeze to understand what gets stuck at 90+% (CPU, GPU, RAM or disks i/o).
Is it by any chance an MSI laptop, as I had the same problem with an MSI laptop. Wouldn’t run Manjaro KDE but was ok with Mint, Manjaro Gnome.
I never got to the bottom of the problem. I just got another laptop. My gut feeling was that there was some hardware in it that did not get on with KDE.
Disabling baloo helped but still I was never able to get Manjaro KDE to run very well.

Thanks for your feedback, but I don´t have a msi laptop. It´s a Chinese crappy brand : kuu k2
you are using this kernel which is going to be end of life, so install the newer 5.19 and try with it, maybe it will help with the freezes …
also provide logs:
journalctl -b0 -p4 --no-pager
sudo dmesg -l err,warn,emerg,alert,crit
