Description darrenllr 2024-03-22 06:12:28 UTC

SUMMARY
When logging out, and back in again, my Session is not restored.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
System Settings > 
Session > 
Desktop Session > 
Session Restore = "On login, launch apps that were open: = On last logout"
Log out
Log back in

OBSERVED RESULT
An empty session with none of the applications open.

EXPECTED RESULT
The session I was working on, with the applications open that I was working on (and, I guess, on the same Virtual Desktops)

I see similar problems on openSUSE Tumbleweed with Plasma 6.0.3. I think it's the "save" part that is broken: when I first started after upgrading from Plasma 5 3 of my activities 4 were active, and most of the programs were started (Chromium has never been restarted, so that was no surprise), and IIRC even some of the activity/virtual desktop settings were right. I would count that as a successful update. After logging out and in again basically nothing was started. When I started the remaining activity (it was intentionally disabled in back in Plasma 5 for unrelated reasons) things in that activity were also more or less correctly set up. But after the next restart things are gone as well.

On Wayland it was broken. In KDE 6.1 it is sort of restored.

Fedora 41. Problem persists.

Comment 5 Brian Kaye 2024-11-09 17:42:42 UTC

Applications restored but to wrong desktop.
