Description Mingcong Bai 2018-03-18 16:02:37 UTC

I should point out that, first of all, this is more of a feature request than a bug report...

The Plasma desktop doesn't seem to save session (open windows, etc.) on an accidental shutdown (or a forced power off for that matter), but it seems like that sessions are only saved on a normal shutdown - that is, to shutdown/logout Plasma from the session menu. With a forced shutdown, it seems like that Plasma would try and recover a session from the last time the system was shutdown properly, which is bizzare...

Could I have some input on this? Is there any particular considerations that has prevented an implementation of periodic saving of session state?
