You are using wayland?
What are the outputs of

echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE

and

echo $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP

x11

xcfe

The error seems to be telling you that Kded should be typed as an Application not a Service

Did you try changing the line in /usr/share/applications/org.kde.kded5.desktop as follows:

Type=Service

to

Type=Application

You may have to be root to have permissions to save the change.

Its allowed me to make the change but there is still something different about the menu that i cant place.

thanks though

No problem. Let us know if you realise what is different.

i did this change, because whisker menu editor said that the Service is invalid. I hope it will not break anything.

Did it work out okay?
