If I remember right, I once had to delete that file (or maybe it was ~/.local/share/kscreen/?) to get desktop mode working at all. Basically I could use game mode fine, but switching to desktop mode didn’t work and just gave a black screen. Ended up connecting a keyboard, using ctrl+alt+F3 to swap to a command line, and deleting it that way.

Actually I did delete
~/.local/share/kscreenas well but I had done that a day before I deleted the other file. Maybe it needed both. Wont be able to know unless it’s tested and I don’t know how to get back to a broken state.Good catch though, i didn’t even think that might be relevant till you said something!
I don’t think deleting
kwinoutputconfig.jsonwill work being logged in, according to this KDE discussion where I got my info for the fix. I guess you could probably login to the terminal as root if you have root setup.Hope this thread helps the next person that has the issue!
