Hi,

Any ideas where KDE keeps its widget settings? Something got screwed up with the KDE Digital Clock widget and I can't find any way to fix it so maybe removing the clock settings file may help.

Thanks,

Tried that but it doesn't work right.

That file seems to contain the list of widgets installed on the panel. Am looking for a place where "org.kde.plasma.digitalclock" settings are kept.

Thanks

Perhaps I need to clarify that I'm looking for my Digital Clock widget *user* settings. When one goes into the "Configure Digital Clock" window and selects different options (for example, "Show date", "Time display format", "Date format", etc) where are they stored?

Thanks,

The KDE Digital Clock widget config settings are stored in the "~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc" file.

Thanks to everyone who responded.
