K-Win frequently crashes when the PC starts up

I ran the first piece of code, then restarted Kubuntu, and Kwin still isn’t crashing.

Here’s the code from the process monitor for crashed processes:

do you mean this code ? mv ~/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids ~/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids.backup

if so , I'd leave the system in its current state for a few days and see whether KWin remains stable. (reboot a couple of times) .If it does, we can then work on narrowing down which widget/s is responsible without having to guess.

also , when you renamed the folder, did all of your custom desktop widgets disappear, or did most of them still remain?

This is the programme I was referring to:






There’s nothing I miss about Windows anymore, apart from the fact that you could create a system restore point there. The idea was that, if the system became corrupted, you could revert to a restore point from when the PC was still working properly. Is there something like that in Kubuntu as well?

Is it possible to carry out an ‘in-place upgrade’ in Kubuntu, as you can in Windows, to repair the system?
