Can you confirm that this is still an issue?

That 4.14.8 Plasma version is suspiciously way too old for even 2022, and with the more appropriate 5.x versions I haven't seen such issues even back in 2022 on multiple hosts. Even when plasmashell crashed, Krusader just started opening its own windows to show progress.

I have since moved onto Rocky 9 distro where Krusader does not seem to work at all, so I guess this bug can be closed for now until I can figure out how to get it workgin on Rocky.

Wishing you luck in getting it going again, it's one of the major reasons why I could conveniently switch from Windows, even though Total Commander had more features, but Krusader is still decent at file management.

Recently (unfortunately) I got to see that Krusader is still persistent at showing notifications as the infamous RDNA2 VCN hanging bug brought down most of my desktop environment, so Krusader started opening progress windows without being able to show native notifications, so I think the feature is all right.

I don't think I can close bugs, possibly you as the bug opener can do it though.
Setting RESOLVED to get it out of the way, expecting someone with the right privilege to set CLOSED status eventually.
