SUMMARY
Changing the location of the Autostart files in the Locations section of the system settings does not persist or take effect. Logging out and back in resets the location. The Startup manager in the system settings also still shows the old location. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create new folder, ~/.config/autostart-kde
2. Set this as the autostart location
3. Click no when asked whether to move files.

OBSERVED RESULT
After logging out and back in (or closing and reopening the settings) the setting controlling the location settings should have been reverted.

EXPECTED RESULT
The changes to the autostart location should be permanent and take effect.
