SUMMARY
Sometimes when I reboot my system the desktop will have all of its settings reset: wallpaper, icon size and sorting, all of that will go back to the defaults.

1. Have your own desktop settings
2. Reboot and log back in

Hello, I have this desktop settings resets too.

Operating System: KDE neon 5.26
KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.99.0
Qt Version: 5.15.7
Kernel Version: 5.15.0-52-generic (64-bit)

I sometimes switch from X11 to Wayland and vice versa. I should check if it's related to this switch or just on X11. Today I had this problem on X11
