The best way to do this is kill plasma first, from Konsole
kquitapp plasma &
then move/rename the plasma*rc files Anne mentioned, then restart plasma,
plasma &
This will then start with *new/default* plasma*rc files, just moving them
and logging out will just recreate the old ones again on login. There is no
need to log out with the above procedure.
