I Just updated my system and the application launcher is giving me an error (Someone please help i am a newbie)

The error looks something like this and i searched everywhere but cant seem to solve the problem…

file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.kickoff/contents/ui/main.qml:20:1: Cannot load library /usr/lib/qt6/qml/org/kde/plasma/private/kicker/libkickerplugin.so: (libKF6Runner.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

Since i am a new user i cant really upload images

So please someone help me i want to access my other apps for my work…

like SGS said without the garuda-inxi its hard to help you but im guessing you upgraded from plasma 5 to 6. 99% of all widgets have to be rewritten by the volunteer developer who made it so you can do two things. Remove the widget an add a stock one back. you can also check the get new section of widgets an see if a KDE 6 compatible one has been made an add it that way.

To do any of this R-Click on empty desktop an click edit mode. From there you can remove your old one, swap it with a built in kde one or find a new one with the “Get New” button in the Add Widgets panel. more are being added over time so it might not be there just yet.

Maybe you could restore the latest working snapshot and repeat the garuda-update.
Just in case anything went wrong last time.
Did you update with garuda-update or what?

So what happend is i didnt use my lap for quite sometime but as soon as i started the computer i updated the whole system after that when i restarted the application launcher isnt working… And that to i cant access the snapshot thing becasue my application launcher isnt working… Plus before updating the application laucher was working but after updating (Using the garuda assistant ) The application laucher wasn’t working

So this was the big KDE 6 update, which might cause this kind of troubles.
Try as suggested to remove the widget, especially if you used a non-standard widget, and add back the standard one.
Even if the application launcher is not working, maybe krunner will (alt+space if I remember correctly).
Anyway, in case you want to restore a snapshot, you do it from the GRUB.

If you restore and update again, make sure to read

So here is the thing i tried going to the grub an chose a snapshot that is the latest so once i clicked on it everything was going well but then it just gets stuck in the booting screen error was something like this : (Failed to start sna daemon) and something like that… pls help

Snapshots are taken before and after each update, so the last one should be anyway with the same system you have now.
Try the one before, probably generated a few minutes earlier.

Yep i tried everything but i end up with the same result the error Is Samba nma daemon failed to start and Samba mna daemon failed to start i think. Please help some with with screenshots so i can follow

Please don’t beg for help, we all do what we can.
I’m not a snapshot expert sorry.
Before anyone else jumps in, have you tried the widget change? Have you read the migration wiki and maybe tried the manual migration (I don’t know if it was triggered before by the Garuda system maintenance)?

Just shooting blanks here, try to reset to the default theme (find “System Settings”), the steps are numbered:

I followed all the steps but still i am getting the error…

Try, open garuda-assistent

This doesnt seem to solve the problem aswell, i went to garuda assistent and did the same things and logged out aswell but no changes…

Perhaps loading up the new LiveISO an dragging kickoff over to your system in the correct folders of course. Just guessing here. Since im not sure what version of kde you upgraded from maybe something got lost over the years.

kickoffis the standard application launcher from KDE and requires krunner (libKF6Runner.so.6). Try reinstall krunner with:

sudo pacman -S krunner

If that doesn’t help, reinstall Plasma (kickoffis a part of plasma) with:

sudo pacman -S plasma-desktop

and reboot.
