But I just updated to 6.1 this morning, and now when I reboot it always opens the programs I had open on the first reboot. I've rebooted several times, all with nothing open, and it always reoopens the four or five programs I had open the first time. I have looked in the settings and online for a way to clear that feature, but found nothing. Went to report a bug and Persistent Apps isn't an option on https://bugs.kde.org/ Anyone else having this issue and figure out a solution? STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Installed updates including Plasma 6.1 2. Reboot OBSERVED RESULT On every reboot the programs that were open on the initial reboot after update are now opened . EXPECTED RESULT Was expecting the programs to be left open each time rebooting would be opened again on reboot. Or a place to clear what programs were open to avoid issues if a program gets uninstalled or updated. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 40 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0 Qt Version: 6.7.1 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I have the same issue, also on Fedora. Would not have used the feature anyway, but was confused what was going on when the same applications were opened regardless of what I had opened before reboot. Finally found the setting to turn it off completely.
Any workaround ?
I was able to find it thanks to some community guidance. Settings > Desktop Session > Changed to start with an empty session. That cleared everything out.
All the literature about Plasma 6.1 and most of the info I found online called it Persistent Apps. The OS (Fedora 40) had it in Desktop Sessions. One needs to be changed.
If anyone wondering, you must let the "start with an empty session" selected. Selected it will not clear the corrupted state.
