What's the solution to "updating configuration" running continually when you select "open with" and then check the "remember this application" box or when using KDE menu editor? I've had this problem come and go for a long time and it's finally starting to irritate me.

I haven't found a solution, my workaround is to try to remember the changes I desire, then apply them early in the session the next time I log in. For some reason the problem seems to occur more frequently the longer I've been logged in.

I have found that often the changes I have created will persist or become active at next login even though the "applying changes" window just keeps recycling, giving the impression that it has not finished.

I also see this behaviour when editing file associations.

Hope this is helpfull, I'm all ears if someone has an actual solution

see ya dh

I've got a system that hasn't had a clean install since 11.2, I've just acquired another hard drive so I'm going to do one and that usually fixes it. I once found a kde configuration utility through a configuration file in one of the kde dirs under /usr/data which fixed the problem, I'll have a quick look before I reinstall.
