Description ja.krukowski 2019-02-13 14:03:02 UTC 
https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=289&t=157114

After the update of kde plasma from 5.14.5 to 5.15.0 and kde framework from 5.54 to 5.55, I can not open the application by clicking on it with the right mouse button. There is no "open" item in the menu. It is only "open with: Kate" and "open with". It releated to bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=404105, after that dosen't work i'm used this method to open dolphin, shortcut to virtual machine

Probably this broken that functionality:

--> Plasma Desktop [Folder View] make file context menu consistent with Dolphin's.

How about a left click.

Left clik dosen't work because of this bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=404105

That is a separate valid issue, the Open in the context menu is redundant, closing this.

What we could probably do is add a "Run <thing>" menu item at the top of the menu if it's a desktop file or an executable. Thanks to https://cgit.kde.org/plasma-desktop.git/commit/?id=d75a37b58992fe10718a1bee08cab9a085f27eb2, we can now do this in only one place in KIO, and Dolphin and Folder view will both get it automatically.
