Description Vadym Krevs 2025-01-17 08:32:49 UTC

SUMMARY
Restored session does not restore any previously opened apps after upgrade to 6.3 beta from openSUSE 15.6 OBS.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Login into KDE. Start Konsole and Firefox  and open a few tabs in each. Also configure autostart in system settings to autostart System Monitor and Skype. 
2. Ensure that System Settings->Desktop Session->Session Restore is configured to launch apps that were open on last logout.
2. Log out
3. Log on again

OBSERVED RESULT
Only apps configured to auto-start - System Monitor and Skype - are restarted

EXPECTED RESULT
Both apps configured to auto-start and previously running apps  are restarted after log off/log on.

Same applies to Kate - if it is started and a previously saved session is loaded, then after a log off/log on, Kate is not started, and manually starting it does not load the last session ...

Installed Plasma 6.3 Beta 2 from OBS and the session restore works again as expected. Thank you!

Installed Plasma 6.5 Beta 1 from OBS and session restore is borked again ...

Can you open up a new bug for this? It sounds like it was fixed and possibly regressed. Thanks.
