Description Bronson 2017-02-11 04:10:25 UTC
No folders or icons appear in dolphin when using as root user.
Sometimes its handy to load dolphin as root user to make some quick file changes. But without icons or folders, its a bit awkward to navigate.

To test:
sudo dolphin

Please don't open Dolphin as root, it's not supported. See https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152150
