Created attachment 166347 [details] an unexpected '/' character at the front of the file saving path SUMMARY The program automatically adds a '/' before the path after the "Select a directory" Dialog when setting the file-saving path. This behavior is supposed to be aimed at Linux, but on Windows, this will cause files to be saved to unexpected places if the user doesn't check it after the dialog is closed, and leads to the illusion that the file-sharing function is not working. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Double-click on the KDE Connect tray icon to open the main window and connect to a phone 2. Double-click on the name of the connected phone 3. Click "Plugin Settings" 4. Find "Share and Receive" and click the settings icon button 5. Click the "browse" icon button and select a directory OBSERVED RESULT There is an unexpected '/' at the front of the directory path (see attachment) EXPECTED RESULT No extra '/' SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: 10 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.109.0 Qt Version: 5.15.10 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The file-saving path can also be edited in the "configure" window opened from the tray menu. It is handled properly if set in this way (the window style is also fancier).
