I am not able to reproduce. Please attach the desktop file to this bug report. For context: I did https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/commit/ac22a4f170d08552a6e7b00f77cd23dc244010fd a while ago, which is related to the described issue.

Though here the issues is not the filename, but the exec values.

Created attachment 153075 [details] An example of KRunner defaulting to the wrong application because of its .desktop filename STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Search for an application with a name similar to another application's .desktop filename OBSERVED RESULT Often times the one with the matching .desktop filename comes on top even if the actual name of the application does not contain the search query. EXPECTED RESULT The correct application name should be on top since KRunner shouldn't look for .desktop filenames.
