SUMMARY When Dolphin 23.04.1 is restored by resuming an activity or rebooting (with session restoration enabled), it always shows the default directory (user's home), instead of showing the folders that were open when the activity was saved or the computer was shut down. STEPS TO REPRODUCE Situation A 1. In a fresh activity, open Dolphin and navigate to any directory other than the default 2. Suspend the activity 3. Resume the activity Situation B 1. In System Settings > Startup and Shutdown > Desktop Session, pick the option to restore applications from last session 2. Open a Dolphin window and navigate to any directory other than the default 3. Reboot and log in OBSERVED RESULT A Dolphin window opens in the correct virtual desktop/activity, but it just shows the default directory (user's home). EXPECTED RESULT Session restore should restore the folders that were open in the dolphin windows.

(In reply to Méven Car from comment #2) > MR https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/merge_requests/550 That does not seem to fix the issue on my machine (tested situation A).
A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/merge_requests/550
I am currently experiencing the same bug. If it can help, I see the default home folder when I open dolphin manually (clicking on the app) and when my computer opens dolphin on start, BUT I see the saved state when another app opens dolphin. Not sure why the behavior is different depending on the case

Not sure why the behavior is > different depending on the case as seen in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=469656 , the bug doesn't happen if you open dolphin with the shortcut (default Meta+E in Plasma). I'm just reposting for others since it's a valid workaround
