Hi, this issue is from before the current DS version (2022 SP2) - the side palette - after pinning and removing unnecessary tabs, reappears in every session, which wastes time and attention every session to close them just to start work. This seems like - either an overlooked bug or a bad attempt at forcing these features onto the user. Either way - this has to go as older versions (perhaps till 2020/21 - not sure) had no such problem.
