5. KDE Sessions

KDE and its applications support sessions. This feature allows the system to save the state of all applications that are in use when the user logs out of the desktop environment, and to restore them when the user logs back in.

[Note] Note

Please bear in mind that non-KDE applications, and even some KDE ones, may have limited session support. The degree of session recovery is up to the application, ranging from just opening the application again, to opening it along with all the files that were open inside that application.

By default, KDE automatically saves sessions whenever you log out of the desktop environment. To change the default behavior, open the Session Manager (System+Configuration+KDE+ KDE Components → Session Manager from the main menu), make your choices and click the OK button. The settings are effective the next time you log into KDE.
