KDE Crashes after deleting any activity

Support KDE Plasma

Hello,
For some reason whenever I delete an activity that I have Plasma crashes. All my applications disappear for a second, sometimes plasma will relaunch, but other times I get a black screen with no dock or menu bar. I’m not sure what information I could provide to help (let me know if you have something in mind). I included an inxi -F. I forgot if that option is fine, if not I can repost my inxi output.

You should start with a full system update and also change the kernel as the 5.8 is EOL = end of life.

sudo pacman-mirrors -f && sudo pacman -Syyu
then (for example)
sudo mhwd-kernel -i linux59

Or do it from the UI … Pamac and MHWD.

I used the commands you posted and the problem is still persisting.
