Version: 4.5 (using KDE 4.5.4) OS: MS Windows In Dolphin on KDE for Windows, an address with the filename, for example, C:/somefile.txt will return the error "The file or folder C:/somefile.txt does not exist". In Konqueror, this will work. Just as a note, once I press enter after typing in the address, a slash is being appended to the end of the address. I'm not sure if this is related or not. In File Associations whilst adding an Application Preference (and browsing for a file), the error "'C:/Program' not found, please type a valid program name." is received. This is probably because quotes are not added and because the program has a space in it. When quotes ARE added, the following error is received: 'C:/Program Files/SomeGroup/SomeProgram.exe' not found, please type a valid program name. This occurs when the file does in fact exist. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: (using Windows Vista, not sure about other versions; using KDE for Windows) Go into Dolphin and enter an existing address with a filename at the end of it (that does exist). An error message should be returned stating the file or folder does not exist. Go into System Settings > File Associations > Edit a file association > Add an Application Preference. Use browse to find an executable. Pressing OK should result in an error if there is a space in the name. Add quotes around the address and try again; this should result in an error stating that the address was not found. Actual Results: For both Dolphin and the File Associations, error messages are returned stating that the address does not exist. Expected Results: In both cases the address should be accepted. For File Associations, it should work all of the time and automatically add quotes around the address if necessary.
Please do not mix multiple bugs in one report. The second issue is a duplicate of bug 245358. For the first issue, I am sure there is a duplicate, but I didn't find it.
Yes, I did a bit of searching and it is a duplicate of this: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=183153
Marking as duplicate since this was the main issue anyway. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 183153 ***
For the Dolphin issue, I've filed a seperate bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=279563
