    KDE Wallet will not turn off

    I'm very new to Kubuntu and Linux, as a matter of fact, this is only my second install. I tried OpenSuse several years ago but couldn't get printing working correctly so stayed with Windows. I'm here to stay now and I Like It!



    Everything but the KDE Wallet. During the installation, I did tell the installer to configure it, but now every time I open Google Chrome it gives me a message about not having a KDE Wallet key (after complaining it does let me continue into Chrome). I have disabled the KDE Wallet System in System Settings. Still no luck.

    I have Kubuntu 25.04 and upgraded me KDE Plasma to 6.3.5. Thanks in advance for the help!

    There are reports that Plasma 6.3.5 has a bug if you do not use kwallet. Just leave it installed and running and use a blank password for kwallet. Then it shouldn't bug you anymore.

      Thanks for the answer. Seems KDE Wallet will not allow me to save the configuration without a password. It says configuration, not sure if that is for the key or the configuration. I did read through the link you provided, I didn't see any situations like mine. Is there a good document with step-by-step instructions for configuring and using KDE Wallet? Maybe I'm just using it incorrectly.

      Thanks Bobby

        A few years ago I had a problem with the wallet and the only way I could sort it out then is to stop using auto-login (ie. no password).

          My 25.04 install (vm) has never asked for a password for kwallet. I suspect the problem lies with Chrome since it's not from the Kubuntu repos.

            As a test, I downloaded and installed Chrome from the deb package on 25.04. When I initially launched it, google wallet opened and asked for a password. I left the password fields blank (as I suggested) and continued. It asked if I was sure I wanted to use an empty password, I clicked OK. I rebooted and Chrome opens without launching Wallet.

            Seems to work as expected here.
