KDE Plasma 5 - Programs don't appear in menu after installation

Hi,

I have installed Arch linux today and after installation every program i.e. 'pacman -S firefox' it don't appear in start menu in applications. I tried to install more programs and none of them is there. Strange is that I have installed Arch linux also yesterday on another pc and there if I install any application then it appears in the menu. So I don't understand why it's not working on today's installation and I don't know how to find this problem.
If I list files in /usr/share/applications/ then .desktop of the new installed applications are there.

Does anybody know how could I find the problem?

Thanks

Try running kbuidsyscoca5 in terminal, then see if they appeared.
