i tried changing the fileassociation for odt from libreoffice to calligrawords and it is working everywhere except in the folder view widget. even restarting plasmashell did not change this faulty behaviour after i restart Xorg it also works in the folder view widget i made sure that all tree locations /usr/share/applications/ .config/ and .local/share/applications/ had the same mimeapps.list file
Folder View just uses KRun.
Are you able to reproduce this issue with KDE Frameworks 5.49 and Plasma 5.13.x?

This bug persists. Steps to reproduce (apps used: okular 1.6.3 and libreoffice writer 6.2.2): 1. have an odt file in your home 2. add "folder view" widget to your desktop 3. open the settings of the "folder view" widget, set your home as location, apply the setting 4. open dolphin, select your odt file located in home, press alt+enter to open its properties 5. click "File type options" button 6. move another app to top of the prefered apps list and apply the setting 7. double click your odf file in Dolphin: as expected, odt file opens with the app moved to top of the prefered apps list in the previous step 8. now open the same odt file via "folder view" widget added to your desktop Result: odf file opens with another app, not the app moved to top of the prefered apps list in the step 6 Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.15.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.56.0 Qt Version: 5.12.2
If you can still see this issue please post the output of: ls -l ~/.cache/ksycoca* You might have different apps using different locales, which means two different ksycoca database files in ~/.cache, one for each lang/locale. c.f. https://cgit.kde.org/kservice.git/commit/?id=f1bdf30501b87cb79806362a68c7515ba755275a

Could it be that you actually tested making multiple changes and using the Apply button more than once? I just fixed a bug where the second click on Apply wouldn't save the apps list.
