You can use the BackStageOpening event to set the SelectedIndex of BackStage and maintain the same BackStageTabItem selected when opening the BackStage in WPF Ribbon control.

XAML

<syncfusion:Ribbon  x:Name="_ribbon" BackStageOpening="_ribbon_BackStageOpening"  VerticalAlignment="Top">
     <syncfusion:RibbonTab Caption="Home">
           <syncfusion:RibbonBar></syncfusion:RibbonBar>
     </syncfusion:RibbonTab>
     <syncfusion:Ribbon.BackStage>
           <syncfusion:Backstage >
                 <syncfusion:BackstageTabItem Header="Tab1" Content="Item1"></syncfusion:BackstageTabItem>
                 <syncfusion:BackstageTabItem Header="Tab2" Content="Item2"></syncfusion:BackstageTabItem>
                 <syncfusion:BackstageTabItem Header="Tab3" Content="Item3"></syncfusion:BackstageTabItem>
           </syncfusion:Backstage>
     </syncfusion:Ribbon.BackStage>
</syncfusion:Ribbon>

// BackStage Opening event
private void _ribbon_BackStageOpening(object sender, System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e)
{
   // Set the selectedindex for BackStageTabItems
   _ribbon.BackStage.SelectedIndex = 0;
}
