Description soee 2015-04-14 12:23:46 UTC 
There are some rare situations when removed desktop widgets are restored after relogin or reboot. It is hard ot say when and why this happens. Maybe some cache or something related to session (mine is configured ot be restored after login).

Reproducible: Sometimes
Comment 1 Bhushan Shah 2015-04-14 12:30:47 UTC 
I can reproduce this sometimes.
Comment 2 Marco Martin 2015-04-14 15:49:02 UTC 
the widgets are still existing for a while (that's how the deletion can be undone)
recently a crash on exit has been fixed.. i suspect the configuration file wasn't updated due to plasma crashing on exit.
Can this still be reproduce on something more recent than Plasma 5.3 beta1? (the first beta still has the crash on exit)

So, does this still happen on Plasma 5.3.0?
Comment 5 soee 2015-05-14 20:31:39 UTC 
Hard to say. Plasma don't crash for me now. I tried to add and remove 2 widgets and run: kquitapp plasmashell && plasmashell but after that they were gone as they should. Not sure though how it will behave after some crash.
Comment 6 Martin Klapetek 2015-05-14 20:48:49 UTC 
Well things shouldn't crash in the first place :) When they do, the (overall) behavior is pretty much undefined.

I'll close this for now as the original bug reported is now fixed.
