Created attachment 138806 [details] File Type Options dialogue SUMMARY STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. 2. 3. OBSERVED RESULT EXPECTED RESULT SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: 5.80.0 Qt Version: Qt 5.15.2 (built against 5.15.2) ADDITIONAL INFORMATION When I right-click any file, then properties, the "File Type Options" dialogue doesn't appear when I click it. Now I had to revert back to the old version 20.12.3
You mean when you click on that button, nothing happens? Are you running Dolphin on KDE Plasma, or another desktop environment?
Created attachment 138807 [details] attachment-26803-0.html Sorry, I didn't mention my OS that's Ubuntu hirsute. Yes, nothing appears when I click that button to change the default application to open a particular file type, because when I double click on image, sound or videos, out doesn't open in the default application. Instead it opens a dialogue to choose the opening application. It's weird. I don't know why Dolphin has these bugs for a long time. Furthermore when I try to open any USB device or no mobile phone, Dolphin shows the error. Now I installed the old version unfortunately.

The dialog asking you to choose which app to open the file in is a Flatpak portal thing. I'm not sure we can fix it. It's baked into how Flatpak apps handle things like this. The button doing nothing when clicked is a legit issue that we can fix, though.

"The dialog asking you to choose which app to open the file in is a Flatpak portal thing. I'm not sure we can fix it. It's baked into how Flatpak apps handle things like this." This dialogue relates to the second dialogue when clicking "File Type Options". When we set the default application, the first dialogue doesn't appear. It doesn't relate to snap or flatpak. They do not change the source code of the applications. Even for snap version of some applications, I've seen the first dialogue On 5/26/21 8:32 PM, Nate Graham wrote: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=437701 Nate Graham <nate@kde.org> [1] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEEDSINFO |CONFIRMED Resolution|WAITINGFORINFO |--- Summary|"File Type Options" |"File Type Options" button |dialogue doesn't appear |assumes presence of | |filetypes KCM and does | |nothing if it is not | |present Assignee| dolphin-bugs-null@kde.org [2] | kio-bugs-null@kde.org [3] Version|21.04.1 |5.82.0 Component|general |Properties dialog Product|dolphin |frameworks-kio Ever confirmed|0 |1 CC| | kdelibs-bugs@kde.org [4] --- Comment #3 from Nate Graham <nate@kde.org> [1] --- The dialog asking you to choose which app to open the file in is a Flatpak portal thing.

Can you attach a screenshot of the dialog we're talking about?
Created attachment 138826 [details] 2.png The first dialogue I can't send the screenshot because I uninstalled the buggy version and reverted back to the old one. But the button "File Type Options" is attached. The first one is not important and it relates to the facts that I can't open the second dialogue when I click "File Type Options" button. When I could open this button then I an define the default application and then the first dialogue (choosing between the appropriate application to open the file) doesn't show anymore. Attach 2.png is the "File Type Options" button and 3.png is the dialogue when I click the button. In the latest version of Dolphin which I tested yesterday, 3.png doesn't appear, and this is the root of the problem.
