It's part of konsole's default profile (it probably inherits from System Settings/User/Paths by default). $ cat ~/.kde/share/config/konsolerc | grep DefaultProfile look at the DefaultProfile eg.:- $ cat ~/.kde/share/config/konsolerc | grep DefaultProfile DefaultProfile=Shell.profile $ cat ~/.kde/share/apps/konsole/Shell.profile | grep Directory Directory= In the above example the default konsole profile (I use several) start directory is ~ My Documents path is also ~. Default is ~/Documents.
