Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:109.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/119.0

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open a bunch of Firefox windows.
  2. Put them on different KDE activities
  3. Logout
  4. Login and wait for Firefox to automatically restore the previous session.

I am running KDE Plasma 5.27.9 on Arch Linux. Problem reproducible on actually all versions I have used. I have been using Firefox since 3 or 4 years ago and this problem has always been there. I just recently start to open more windows and so this problem becomes more irritating to me.

Actual results:

There are correct number of windows in each activities. For example, if before I logout there are 5 windows in activity 1 and 3 windows in activity 2, after session restore, it will also have 5 windows in activity 1 and 3 windows in activity 2.

However, the actual windows may be swapped. Some windows that should be in activity 1 will be restored at activity 2, and some at activity 2 will be restored at activity 1.

Note that the total number of windows in each activity are correct, but the windows may be swapped.

Expected results:

All windows get restored in the correct activity.
