KDE will automatically start from where the user left off in their previous session. KDE, for example, keeps track of open applications and their window positioning when a user logs out and will open such applications when the user logs back in.
It could be helpful to some, while others wish to start from a clean slate. You can configure KDE to start from an empty session for your user from the System Settings.
Steps to configure session startup option for KDE:
- Open System Settings from launcher.
- Click on Startup and Shutdown menu on the sidebar.
- Go to Desktop Session panel by clicking on the sidebar menu.
- Click on Start on an empty session radio button in the When logging in section to start KDE with an empty session.
- Click on the Apply button to save the configuration change.
