SUMMARY If I try to copy files from an external USB hard disk to an ext4 partition in a laptop through dolphin's copy functionality, it will fail shortly after starting, and will unmount the drive along with it, usually crashing along. Happened on multiple attempts while other file managers succeeded at the first try. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Connect an external USB hard disk to a laptop. 2. Browse said drive with Dolphin. 3. Copy some files form the external disk to the local disk. OBSERVED RESULT Dolphin crashes, the drive is unmounted, and the operation fails. EXPECTED RESULT Should copy the files. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.62.0 Qt Version: 5.12.5
That's odd. What exactly do you mean by "it will fail shortly after starting"? In what way? Also if you can get a backtrace of the crash, that would be helpful. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports

See > https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/ > How_to_create_useful_crash_reports I mean that it doesn't manage to reach any significant amount of the copy operation. And no, sorry, cannot provide more info, don't have any spare hardware to play with.
