kwriteconfig5: Delete a key.
$ kwriteconfig5 --group ${group_name} --key ${key} --delete
try on your machine

The command "kwriteconfig5" is a utility used to modify the configuration files for KDE applications. The "--group" option specifies the group or section within the configuration file that the changes will apply to. "${group_name}" is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual name of the group.

The "--key" option specifies the specific key or setting that should be modified. "${key}" is another placeholder that should be replaced with the actual name of the key.

The "--delete" option instructs the command to delete the specified key from the configuration file. This means that the corresponding setting will be removed and reverted to its default value.

So, when you execute the command "kwriteconfig5 --group ${group_name} --key ${key} --delete", it will delete the specified key from the configuration file within the specified group.
