I think if you get it set like you want it then save the profile it will
open that way the next time, Settings > Save View Profile File
Management.  That is how mine works any way.

Do you have this as a button on the task bar, in the KDE menu or on the
desktop?  Basicaly where is the thing you click on to open Konqueror
up?  I'll tell you how I have mine set up to open as file manager.  I
had to get help on mine too.
