SUMMARY
Kate (Version 25.04.3) does not restore untitled files after closing the application, even though auto-save and session restoration options are enabled. This results in data loss if the user closes the app without manually saving the file.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

    Open Kate (v25.04.3)

    Create a new file (untitled) and type some text

    Close Kate without saving the file

    Ensure the following settings are enabled:

        Load last used session on startup

        Automatically save and restore:

            ✓ Newly-created unsaved files

            ✓ Files with unsaved changes

    Reopen Kate

OBSERVED RESULT
The previously created untitled file is gone, and the text is not restored.

EXPECTED RESULT
The unsaved untitled file should be restored when Kate is reopened, according to the enabled auto-save and session restore configuration.
