SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols.
See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Switch your system language to something not English
2. Open Dolphin
3. Try to rename "Home" or "Desktop" (in the changed language) to  the English word
4. Enter

OBSERVED RESULT
It changes the name to the local one, which is annoying. It seems to recognize the name and translate it, so it renames itself all the time. Only Solution is to name it "#Desktop" e.g.

EXPECTED RESULT
It should one time change the names (or let it), and after that stop auto-translating it.
Maybe for that "Desktop" and "Home" have to stay these words in every translation, its just more convenient.

Comment 1 Christian Janoff 2024-11-10 13:47:33 UTC

I can confirm this behaviour with latest

- Dolphin 24.08.1
- KDE Frameworks 6.6.0
- Qt 6.7.3

Even if the folder label is correctly translated people may not be used to this translation, so they prefer the English word "Desktop" instead of the localised word.
