Every time I log in, a strange message appears saying that a folder in my home directory I created for a project "does not exist".

I don't recall putting any widgets on my desktop that use the folder. The DE is KDE, and I'm using Ubuntu 14.10.

How can I prevent the message from appearing whenever I log in, other than creating the folder?

  • check ~/.config/autostart and $KDEHOME/Autostart and comment any non required line Mar 10, 2015 at 3:44
  • ~/.config/autostart is a folder with three files in it, none of which have any line with the project folder in it :s

  • What about $KDEHOME/Autostart and ~/.profile and /etc/profile ? Mar 10, 2015 at 3:48
  • Doesn't look like $KDEHOME/autostart exists... the other two are scripts that do not mention the project folder

Looks to me like a Plasma widget was set to use this folder.

Check if you have any widgets (e.g. FolderView widget) using this directory.

  • That's what I suspected, at first - the only thing that really has anything to do with folders is a Shelf that I had, and I tried removing it and logging out and in again. No luck ):

  • Try exploring ~/.kde/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc, maybe you can find the cause there. Or move the file somewhere else (to be able to restore it if needed) and re-log-in.
