            Bug ID: 494929
           Summary: Adding New Folder Opener Changes Default File Manager
    Classification: Applications
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 24.08.2
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: boslmari7 at gmail.com

Video showing observed behaviour

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right click in Folder > Open Folder with > Other Application > Always open
Folder files with the chosen app
2. Have any folder opened by something else than Dolphin, like a plugged in usb
stick (with Mount and open)
Also see attached video

OBSERVED RESULT
It will open with the application that was added to the context menu list.

EXPECTED RESULT
It should continue to open the application with dolphin.
Reasoning: If I want to change the file manager, I go to settings and change
the file manager. I do not want my default file manager to change every time I
want to be able to open folders with another application like an IDE or
generally software that works within a directory (which I, for example, have 10
of and every time I installed one of them I had to change back my file
manager).

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 6.10.12-200.fc40.x86_64
KDE Plasma Version: KDE Plasma 6.2.0
