[SOLVED]Re-enable TouchPad after updating from Plasma 5.1.2 to 5.2.0

This is my first post here. I have been an Arch user for nearly 2 years now and have finally had to troubleshoot an issue that had no fix on here or in the wiki so I wanted to share. After updating Plasma from 5.1.2 to 5.2.0 my touchpad on my Samsung series 3 was being disabled between the display manager and the KDE splash screen. To fix this I had to re-enable the touchpad in:

~/.config/ktouchpadenablerrc

from

touchpadEnabled=false

to

touchpadEnabled=true

I hope this keeps someone else from 2 days of troubleshooting.

This would be better in the wiki -- could you add it there please?
