I actually raised this issue with another issue as this one as a minor subtopic here , but now i am actually in need of solution for this again
all my blur effects were replaced with different colours, like latte-dock which was transparent it turned to brownish-orange, terminal changed to blueish-black, and all other blur/transparent colours to other solid colours
and below is of current fullscreen menu
and below is of old current blur/transparent effects

btw, thank you for any support i recieve
2. This issue also appears when i open any game and then returns back when i terminate that game.
So as said above, i am just creating new topic just regarding
2. BLUR EFFECTs mess-up with GAMES so, when i open any game , some have full-screen option and some doesn’t… Hence when it’s not fullscreen latte-dock and others are visible that blur changes to solid colour as in above images . Or else even if its in fullscreen though it will be same, but just not visible everytime, because if i open teriminal while running any game, terminal will also be in solid colour instead of blur
screenshots- while running game and then after terminated to the right…
So, that’s it i know about the issue, I would be happy to receive any suggestion/solutions regarding this, thank you :).
Thats actually a feature of Kwin, allowing applications to suspend the compositor for moar FPS
