KUrl from KDE4 does not have this problem because it covers the "local file case" (see https://github.com/KDE/kdelibs/blob/KDE/4.14/kdecore/io/kurl.cpp#L873 for details). Instead QUrl::toLocalFile() should be used, which is also safe to use on non Windows OS. 1740680 1 ralf.habacker 2018-03-26 09:09:03 +0000 umbrello source code does not use QUrl::path() anymore.
