Icons missing, wrong fonts, unresponsive plasma after update

Support KDE Plasma
1

Hi folks, my problem seems very similar to this one: All desktop and menu icons missing

After a big update (yesterday), all my desktop icons are missing, fonts are wrong in some parts of the plasma UI and the system becomes unresponsive regularly (when clicking the plasma menu, for example).

Here’s a screenshot:

I have tried the same suggestions as that one post but nothing has solved my issue.

UPDATE: Looks like this is also the same problem All Icons are missing

Welcome to Manjaro! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

  1. Please read the information behind this link. It will help you to post necessary information. [HowTo] Provide System Information
  2. Please press the three dots … below your post and then press the :pencil2:
  • If you give us information about your system, we can see what we’re talking about and make better suggestions.
  • You can do this by using inxi in a terminal or in console.
inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --no-host --width
  • Personally identifiable information such as serial numbers and MAC addresses are filtered out by this command
  • Presenting the information in this way allows everyone to be familiar with the format and quickly find the items they need without missing anything.
  1. Copy the output from inxi (including the command) and paste it into your post.
  • To make it more readable, add 3 backticks ``` on an extra line before and after the pasted text.

Hello,

I would start by replacing that kernel as is EOL = End Of Life
The icons issues seems to be kind of random, but i would suggest to clean the ~/.cache folder and apply some settings in the Appearance as if you would set them the first time. Make a change, apply, set back to your favorite default and apply, log out and back in.
