Go with ~/.config first (and probably only), and then maybe look at ~/.local/share contents as well.

~/.kde is for legacy-only kde4 applications

My current profile / login on Fedora KDE 29 is corrupted in some parts.

I was thinking of deleting either the .kde or the .config folders (or
rather rename them)  in order to let the KDE and programs reinitialise
ther settings. I don't want to delete the whole profile (home
directory), because there are a lot of other things that I would like to
preserve.

My intentions are to move part of the settings back from the backups for
those programs and KDE parts that are not corrupted.

Amongst other problems I see is that LibreOffice doesn't like Danish
letters in file or pathnames. But if I start it from commandline with an
empty env (env -i pgmname) it works well.

Another thing I see is that my computer does not respect the settings
for locking the screen when away for the set period of time and it
doesn't go to sleep some time later.

And there is some other problems as well, but that would be a long list.

The profile has been living for quite some years now, so it is probably
the constant upgrading that may have corrupted it.

Which of the two folders should I rename first - .kde or .config? OR
maybe a totally different.

Thanks
