--- Comment #329 from Russell <prusselltechgr...@gmail.com> ---
This entry solved my problem (Dan Duris from comment #312).

Environment:
Desktop machine with 2 permanent monitors (DisplayPort-0, DisplayPort-1) 
Manjaro KDE Distribution (based on archlinux)
KDE Plasma 5.17.5 KDE Framework 5.66.0

Resources:
File [1]: ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc
File [2]: ~/.config/plasmashellrc

I have two monitors that are the exact same hardware. I had configured the
desktops with a different background and panel, etc., many months ago.

DisplayPort-0 has a desktop image of DarkestHour. DisplayPort-1 has a desktop
image of Path. 
The Default desktop image is Elarun.

I turned the machine on today and DisplayPort-1 reverted to the default
background, no panels, nothing else. All my customizations were gone on
DisplayPort-1.

I used the command: grep -iB6 image= File [1] 

I could see the Containments in File [1]. All three images existed in this
file. The Elarun section was in a section [Containments][151].

1. I logged out and opened a virtual terminal.
2. I made a backup of File [1] and removed any section that referenced 151.
3. I deleted any plasma cache I could find under $HOME, /var/tmp or /tmp.
4. I logged backed in.
5. No change. 
6. When I checked File [1], [Containments][151] was back with the Elarun image.

I did a lot of searching and Bug 356225 #312 helped me find a solution.

1. I went to the bottom of File [2] and there were 3 lines in the
[ScreenConnectors] section:

  0=DisplayPort-0
  1=DisplayPort-1
  2=DisplayPort-1

2. I removed 2=DisplayPort-1 and logged off/on and DisplayPort-1 had the
correct desktop configuration. 

A [151] section was still re-added to File [1], but it only contains
PreloadWeight=2. There is no Elarun image in File [1]. There are many sections
that contain only a PreloadWeight and nothing else. 

[Containments][151][Configuration]
PreloadWeight=2
