Could you post your config? I expect the issue is that you don=E2=80=99t (re=
quire 'org) or set up the auto-mode-alist in your init file. This would also=
 be the case if, for instance, you defer loading the package with use-packag=
e, as well. Invoking the agenda will load org, so the next org file you open=
 will do what you expect.

Do org files open in Fundamental mode when you don=E2=80=99t invoke the agen=
da first?
