The kde system settings item "manage services" is missing

I installed cachyos in the default configuration with kde without changing anything, but in the settings menu there is no service management section where I could see what services are active and turn off unnecessary ones. I know there are alternative ways to do this, but I would like to get this menu item back.

It has been missing for a while on my PC too.

This was probably removed following Plasma 6 release as I do not have it as well.

Back in Plasma 5, I had to go looking for it. Development hadn’t been ongoing since KDE 4. Something tells me that you’ll need to find it on the AUR or else pester someone about updating it to Plasma 6.

The KDE team removed it in 6? or 6.1 because users were disabling things and causing instability in their systems.

I have an alias set to access the menu.

#plasma services
alias kbg=“kcmshell6 kcm_kded”

Thanks, this solution worked for me, I didn’t know how to run it directly from the terminal!
