[SOLVED] Plasma 5.9.5-1 crash on start

Is anybody else having Plasma hang when starting with the update today? I am using the stable version and it will not start. I've reverted to 5.9.4-1 for now which bandages the issue but I can't figure out what is causing the crash. I've tried using a different mirror, cleaning pacman cache, and I just can't get 5.9.5-1 to start.

Thanks so much,
Jake

Re: [SOLVED] Plasma 5.9.5-1 crash on start

I guess I posted this just barely prematurely as I found the cause of the problem. With the update somehow some old autostart apps got re-enable in System Settings that had long been uninstalled. I installed the programs, updated Plasma to 5.9.5-1 and restarted my computer (these steps may be able to be skipped), I then disabled the apps in Autostart in System Settings and then uninstalled them.
