General Support How to Stop KDE wallet Requests
I'm new to Endeavour, but have used KDE Plasma (with Fedora) for years. With this Endeavour install I'm constantly being asked for a Kwallet password, a problem that I used to be able to fix by disabling it in System Settings, but for some reason that setting simply isn't there. Can someone point this rookie towards a fix?

Fixed it. You have to install kwalletmanager. After that you'll find the wallet settings "magically" appear!

Hmm, why is this not part of the core system? If it's necessary for kwallet to work/quit nagging. I have to modify my brave launcher after every update. It's annoying

There are few things not installed, on EndeavorOS, by default with KDE. kwalletmanager and KUP (kde's own system backup) for whatever reasons.

Disabling it entirely can break things that expect it to exist. Mailspring comes to mind.
You can change it to look like this for it to not nag you:
[Wallet]
First Use=false
Prompt on Open=false

If you have to login to your desktop vs it boots to desktop helps….. I’ve made the password blank for a special reason on a few systems (rdp)
