Error installing deepin operation could not be performed

Hello to everyone
I am using the kde desktop environment I want to switch to deepin, but when I try to download packages I get the following error

error: operation could not be performed (conflicting files)
deepin-kwin: existing in /etc/xdg/kdeglobals filesystem (owned by manjaro-kde-settings)
deepin-kwin: existing in /etc/xdg/kwinrc filesystem (owned by manjaro-kde-settings)
An error has occurred, no packages have been updated.

Hello again
I solved the problem
I deleted the following 2 files (I made their backups) and fixed the problem

/etc/xdg/kdeglobals
/etc/xdg/kwinrc
