Hi ! I stumbled upon a very specific problem with the Folder View icon cache apparently. - I created in the applications menu a new entry for a game that was provided in a zip file (From Humble Bundle). I chose a custom PNG icon on my disk. I linked the desktop file to my "games" folder view. - It was displayed properly but I figured out I chose the wrong icon so I edited my application entry and chose a different PNG icon --> for some reason, the old icon is still displayed in the folder view (this folder view is linked to a directory that contains some of my games desktop files). I tried rebooting, removing / readding the shortcut... HOWEVER : - the NEW icon is shown in the apps menu. - the NEW icon is shown when browsing the aforementioned directory in Dolphin - the NEW icon is shown in folder view if I don't link but copy the desktop file from the applications menu - if I choose a new icon from the built-in KDE icons set (and not an external PNG icon), the NEW icon is EVEN shown in folder view So to sum it up all, the bug only occurs in FolderView, when LINKING a desktop entry from the apps menu containing an EXTERNAL PNG icon that was modified once. Note both PNG icons had the same name, I didn't check if it was related. Thanks a lot to everyone involved, I love the work carried out in FolderView recently !
Hmm, after a complete system reboot, the old icon eventually vanished. So the consequences of this bug are clearly temporary. Before rebooting, the good icon would be show in the apps menu & dolphin, but the bad icon in folder view. Disconnecting didn't make a difference but rebooting apparently did, for some reason !
Cannot reproduce in Plasma 5.17 or the 5.18 beta. Can you?
