The KDE Plasma desktop is one of the better Desktop Environments which circulate for distributions Linux. It is elegant, and very adaptable to your personal needs. However, this particular DE comes with some behaviors that are not at all ergonomic.
For example, KDE Plasma DE does not remember window locations for your apps. Start an application or open a window and always open the upper left corner of your screen.

A separate window will open with a prenotice but also a window with settings:
In the second image (the settings window you will see that there are four different tabs. We will use the second one which states Size & Position.
We will tick the first two settings and from the drop-down box, change Do Not Affect to Remember. Click OK. From now on, the specific program or window will start exactly at the point you set, with the dimensions you chose.
