Description ivangum 2022-10-05 06:06:42 UTC
SUMMARY:
Dolphin freezes/hangs for minutes "all the time" on removeable ntfs disk. No such problem with either Nautilus nor with Krusader.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. mount a NTFS removeable hard drive
2. Access some folders on that hard drive

OBSERVED RESULT
3. It will freeze/hang for long periods of time. Very frustrating.
4. Tried to access the same drive with Krusader and with Nautilus. Neither apps have this hanging/freezing problem.
5. There is no "unmounted" nor "disconnected" network drive with a "broken" connection.

EXPECTED RESULT
It should not hang or freeze for minutes.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 22.04/
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.6
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I do have a NTFS hard drive with Kubuntu 22.10 (but used 22.04 prior) and have/had no issues with freezing. Not sure if the drive being removable or not makes a difference.
