6. Shut down the live environment and remove the live USB drive.
7. Reboot back into your regular Plasma session. Check the application to see if it looks OK now.
8. It should not be necessary to recover the cache files that were deleted. If you need to, you can recover a file by copying it from the backup directory to the actual directory.

For example, to recover the file `.kde/share/config/kdeglobals`:
```
cp -av .kde.bak/share/config/kdeglobals .kde/share/config/kdeglobals
```
To restore an entire directory:
```
cp -rav .kde.bak/share/config/ .kde/share/config
```
After restoring the file(s) or directories, log out of Plasma and log back in.
