Please tell me how to diagnose when my taskbar is repeatedly disappear and reappearing.

Where to look for what. I want to learn to troubleshoot this.
Thanks

When KDE/Plasma misbehaves inexplicably, first thing I try is log out of Plasma, log into something else, delete ~/.cache/*, then try Plasma. Sometimes that's all that's necessary. If it doesn't work, I repeat, adding the deletion (or restore from backup) of ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc before logging back into Plasma.

Thank you.
I have had the same problem even after several reboot.. then i wrote to this forum in hope to get help.. But after waiting for sometime without reply.. I reboot again (because can't use if it keeps crashing).. then it is no longer crashing.. (i didn't do anything).. why is that ? when i reboot, it will auto detect for fault ? or it auto delete the

Code:

~/.cache/*

? When i resolved to learn to fix this... it went away.. hence i can't try out anymore.

Thank still, I appreciate you for the info. I will note it down for future occurrence.
