from the top of my head there is a file ~/.config/dontaskagainrc that you can manually edit. I'm sure it's somewhere in the settings gui as well but no idea
Run this command
grep -ir ask ~/.config/k*
see if there is any relevant file/line or just past the output somewhere and provide a link
Wait, someone implemented a one-way feature in (presumably) kwin? How does that even make it to a stable release?
It's very likely that it is in the graphical config somewhere, but why play "hunt the pixel" when you can get it in a few milliseconds (plus the time typing the grep command)?
This post makes clear why I dislike such buttons. It's always unclear how to change the preference later.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
