Missing icons in menu and desktop

Support KDE Plasma
4

In another post that is already closed… i found the following steps to reset the KDE theme completely…

  1. Log out of the GUI.
  2. Switch to a tty with Ctrl+Alt+F2.
  3. Log in as the user with the problem.
  4. Issue the following commands… :arrow_down: 
find $HOME/.config/ -maxdepth 1 -name 'plasma*' -exec rm {} \;
rm -f $HOME/.cache/*.kcache
sync
  1. Log out of the tty by pressing Ctrl+D.
  2. Switch back to the GUI with Alt+F1.
  3. Log into the GUI.

My question is… how do you accomplish steps 1 and 7? (source)
1… killall plasmashell
7… kstart5 plasmashell -or- kstart plasmashell

I’d like to try resetting the KDE theme to see if it resolves my “missing icons” issue.
