Disable KDE Wallet from the command line
When I log into my desktop session, Plasma shell is unresponsive and CPU utilization is 100%. I have tracked this down to an issue with KDE Wallet and an attempt to make a WiFi connection. Unfortunately, I cannot resolve the issue via the desktop session because it is mostly unresponsive.
I am seeking a command line solution. I can log in via SSH or I can log into the console without SDDM & Plasma.
I saw a similar solution here: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/36444/15010
cd $(kde4-config --localprefix)share/apps/kwallet mv kdewallet.kwl
kdewallet.kwl.bak
However, I do not have a directory at ~/.kde4/share/apps/kwallet
The closest I find is ~/.kde/share/apps/kwallet where I have I see only this one file: kdewallet.salt
find . -iname "wallet"
./.config/kwalletrc
./.config/kwalletmanager5rc
./.kde/share/apps/kwallet

Going out on a limb, but would uninstalling the wallet w/o removing dependencies help?

I think you have a couple of options:
pkill kwallet
to kill the current wallet processes. If your desktop is still unresponsive, change Enabled=false in ~/.config/kwalletrc and log out and back in.
On a side note, you can open the wallet configuration with kcmshell5 kwalletconfig5, but it crashes without a gui.

I think this is probably the right answer. Unfortunately, it did not work for me. After changing~/.config/kwalletrc, kwallet continues to pop up and cause problems when I log in.

For KDE4:

For KDE5:
kwriteconfig5 --file kwalletrc --group 'Wallet' --key 'Enabled' 'false'
