is your home directory on btrfs? if not, you will need to restore it from backup, or not.
yes everything is on one nvme disk and opensuse handled its partitioning. all default. kde desktop installation choice at the very beginning. kde menu seems to be not functioning, dunno why. how would i reinstall the kde? plasma? stuff to make it add default stuff. the system settings, the plasmadiscover the dolphin icons were not there at the bottom of the kde bar or screen. the whole kde start menu is empty. i have for example also a element-desktop from the opensuse download servers in the path devel languages nodejs 15.5 thats how I understand where this element-desktop (and element-web, and nodejs-electron package it is based on or compiiled to) comes from as well, and for example I can start the element-desktop manually from konsole, and even pin it to the disfunct apps area on the bottom of the screen, but when qutting element-desktop the element-desktop object pinned to that place, then turns out to be the wrapper or lower stack nodejs-electron itself, coming up emtpy and not loading the element-desktop/element-web objects or parts when simply clicking that pinned stuff. starting manually element-desktop works though. so there seem to be some config files? or config places folders etc missing for kde or plasma desktop to work properly?
