Kubuntu session switching shut down window manager
Kubuntu boots to black screen and no cursor after installing updates 1/15/14Dual boot :Windows 7 partition deleted after Kubuntu 14.04 install…Weird!Can not shut down Kubuntu 15.04Admin Account Missing after 'shutdown now' ExitKubuntu 15.04 hangs after/during loginGnome with kubuntu problemsDell Inspiron does not go into GRUB after shutdown from KubuntuKDE login/logout issues in Kubuntu 15.10SDDM fails when PAM_MOUNT is usedKubuntu 18.10, Discover uninstalled dolphin and okular during update but can't reinstall through Discover or Terminal
I'm new to Kubuntu. I created a new user account and wanted to start a new session for that user. Under switch session I selected "unused" and somehow ended up with the window manager completely shut down and at a login prompt (black screen, white text, no graphics). I've gone down this road before by mistake. Why did this happen, and is there a way to get back without rebooting and losing everyone's sessions?

Ctrl-Alt-F2 got me back to normal, though I'm not quite sure what the purpose of "unused" is as a session option.
