I've installed KDE Plasma on Arch Linux. It is a fresh install. Here's my system info: SYSTEM INFO Plasma Version: 5.11.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.42.0 Qt Version: 5.10.0 Kernel version: 4.14.14-1-Arch Processor: i5 6200U RAM: 8GB Display Manager: SDDM The Problem: My desktop icon layout gets changed on every boot. The problem only occurs when I restart(or shutdown+start) my system, I mean restarting plasma-shell or logging in and out does not cause any problem. On further research, I found that the file .config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc gets modified, **only the positions= line is changed.** Currently, I use this script on startup: cp .config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc{.bak,} kquitapp5 plasmashell && kstart5 plasmashell
