From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Related to kwallet if it's installed.
I have noticed other people with kwallet issues, but that only affects me when I restart my system (asks for password). Other than that, I can't find a way to edit or disable kwallet without installing a 2-star app on the KDE Discover store that might not work and is reviewed as extremely annoying.
Kwallet shouldn't ask for password on each start of the system unless you set a different password for it than for your user account. If those are the same and the kwallet is named kwallet (or something like that, it's the default name) then it automatically unlocks on user login
The password for kwallet is different bc I thought I might have ended up using it to manage money. I did not.
change it to be the same and it shouldn't prompt you to open it anymore. The wifi password issue should go too
The issue still occurs, but not nearly as often as it did before.
See section 1 of KWallet's Arch Wiki entry
Unfortunately, the wifi password issue still occurs, but at least it is even less frequent than before (>1 day between password requests).
I restarted my system. All of my configurations should be equivalent to those in the wiki. I'll reply again if the issue still occurs in a few days.
Do you know how I would do that when I cannot access kwallet from the settings?
KWallet Manager is the app to do all things KWallet. It should come preinstalled with KDE Plasma
Apparently I had uninstalled the kwallet manager. I'll change the password and see if my problem still occurs.
