Description skierpage 2008-02-19 12:01:25 UTC 
Version:           4.00.80 (using KDE 4.0.0)
Installed from:    MS Windows Binaries
Compiler:          MSVC 
OS:                MS Windows

In any File Open dialog and in Dolphin, paths such as C:\KDE4\share\sounds appear in the path bar as "Custom Path" > KDE4 > share > sounds.
Clicking Root takes you to "Custom Path".  I never see the Windows drive letter.  I don't see other drive letters like E: (my CD-ROM).

Bug 156159 reports similar problem entering drive letters, but doesn't mention this "Custom Path".

Maybe this is due to lack of Solid on MS-Windows.

Drive letters no longer show up as "Custom Path" in Dolphin 1.0.99 on 4.0.61.  This still happens in file dialogs.
Comment 2 xSacha 2008-05-18 12:22:04 UTC 
This bug no longer exists in 4.0.73. File dialogs as well as URL bar show the directory.
