--- Comment #6 from matt wilkie <map...@gmail.com> --- it's possible I saved afterwards, I don't remember. I think would have avoided it, over concern that saving from a bad state would just make it worse. In any case, it's gone now and that I'm grateful for. Thank you for taking the time to respond. I really appreciate it, knowing all too well how easy it is to led wierd problem reports sit idle. There is always so much else to do! best, -matt On Wed, Nov 7, 2012 at 2:39 AM, allan <agande...@gmail.com> wrote: > https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=309630 > > --- Comment #5 from allan <agande...@gmail.com> --- > (In reply to comment #2) > > Perhaps this should be a different bug report, but when I use "File > > Save > > As" the following error dialog is shown "Could not start the process > Cannot > > talk to klauncher: the name org.kde.launcher was not provided by any > > .service files". > > > > After I dismissed that dialog I was able to save an .anon.xml file. > > > > I get the same error again whenever I use the "File > Open" dialog. > > > > I was eventually able to open anon.xml by using "File > Recent" instead. > > The account names are all replaced by numbers, not unexpected.
