... what's the F...*
Over the editor canvas, right click with mouse to show pop-up menu. The second action is to show menu bar... Right ?
If no, i open the window to jump... (:=)

Everything except looking in /home/dkeats/.config/ I had already done. I moved those files.
Just to be sure about permissions I did sudo chown dkeats:dkeats /home/dkeats -RStarted DK, same story, no menu bar on editor. 
I tried editing the file digikamrc in  /home/dkeats/.config/ but I got the message
The file you opened has some invalid characters. If you continue editing this file you could corrupt this document. You can also choose another character encoding and try again.
I edited anyway, and changed MenuBar=Disabled to MenuBar=Enabled
[General Settings]Application Style=fusionApply Sidebar Changes Directly=falseClean core DB At Start=falseHeight 1080=499Icon Theme=MenuBar=Enabled
but that didn't do anything either. Same issue.

Yes, SHOULD! :)

But it seems like there might be an XML file that is supposed to be

created that is not being created. All that is needed is to figure out why!






going back some steps.





from the gilles's post



https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/digikam-users/2017-February/023827.html



go to



/home/jdd/.local/share/kxmlgui5/



rename the digikam folder as digikam.1



launch digikam and watch the given folder.  At a moment see digikam creates the digikam folder, obviously with the defaults.



But digikam still know of my collections, so some config is elsewhere



look in



/home/jdd/.config/



found three digikam related config files. renamed them



when I start digikam it asks for a new config



of course any rename was done with digikam closed



does this solve your problem.



is not may be some permission problem
