SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols.
See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set up two or more activities
2. Reboot
3. Open any app

OBSERVED RESULT
The opened app shows on all activities, without any way to make it show on only one (or fewer than `n`, where `n` is number of configured activities).

EXPECTED RESULT
The app only opens on the currently active activity, and it's possible to move the app between different activities.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Neither checking the checkbox for a different activity, nor the "move to activity" buttons work to stop an app from showing in all activities.

This issue only seems to occur after a new boot after setting up activities. If I delete *all* activities and set them up again, things work normally until the next boot.

If I create a new activity after booting, I can move apps to the new activity as normal, and it will remove it from the existing activities, but it's not possible to then move the app back to the existing activities, only to new activities created after boot.

Sorry we were not able to get to this yet. I cannot reproduce it with current git master, which is soon to become Plasma 6.3.0. Is this still happening in a recent version of Plasma, like 6.2.5 or later?
