Bug ID: 494690
Summary: Desktop icons returned to default location after a
long period away from computer
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.1.5
Platform: Ubuntu
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Desktop Containment
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: john.storey.dev...@gmail.com
CC: notm...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
After a long period away from computer, the Desktop icons have been reset to
their default location, spanning the Desktop at the top, from left to right,
sorted by directory/file, alphabetically
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Rearrange icons on Desktop to a non-default arrangement
2. Leaving the computer on and logged in, let it sit for a long time (hours).
I cannot say how long; in my case, it was several hours during the day and
overnight.
3. Eventually, icons will be relocated to their default locations.
OBSERVED RESULT
Desktop icons are changed from the User's preferred locations to the default
locations, after a long period of time.
EXPECTED RESULT
Desktop icons should remain in the User's preferred location ... forever. ;-)
Regardless of shutting down, regular updates, etc.
