            Bug ID: 492983
           Summary: Unable To Open Items On The Desktop
    Classification: I don't know
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Kubuntu
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: thewormuths at icloud.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Cannot open folders directly on the desktop.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make a folder on the desktop.
2. Double click to open.
3. Nothing happens.

OBSERVED RESULT
I have this issue on Kubuntu 24.04 on multiple machines, both old and new.  I
cannot open a folder with Dolphin whether I select the single-click or
double-click option.  The icon appears for a second, then stops without opening
the folder.  I have also noticed this behavior when clicking to open a mounted
location from the notification tray "Mount and open..." as well.

If I right-click a folder on the desktop, there is no "Open" command either.

EXPECTED RESULT
I expect to be able to open items on the desktop, without opening by first
launching Dolphin.  

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

Linux/KDE Plasma:  Kubuntu 24.04
KDE Plasma Version:  5.27.11
KDE Frameworks Version:  5.115.0
Qt Version:  5.15.13

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I have seen similarly reported bugs, but none seem to apply to me.  However
this happens on both old and new hardware on a default install.
