Description hagioss 2023-07-10 15:45:43 UTC

The problem is that when I don't use the desktop for a longer period of time, the desktop icons that I have placed on the desktop according to my needs are no longer in the position I want them to be. The desktop now displays them in a position that never existed before. Totally uncoordinated. The two setting options: Displays the desktop with minimized windows, and: Restores all previously minimized windows, neither worked, at least on my system. My suggestion would be a window with the function: Save the desktop.
If changes are made must be saved again. 
If it remains with the current state I must say goodbye to KDE Plasma. I need almost 30 minutes each time to restore the desired desktop. Today it was 4 times so far. A time I do not have.

This seems related to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=468546, where the cause is connecting / disconnecting displays
