SUMMARY *** NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** Title: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the Dolphin File Explorer. 2. Navigate to a directory containing multiple folders. 3. Without pressing the Shift key, open a single folder. Observed Result: When opening a single folder, sporadically, multiple folders above it in the list get selected, despite not pressing the Shift key. This issue occurs intermittently and persists across all viewing modes. A screenshot of the error is attached as there is no available backtrace. Expected Result: Opening a single folder should not cause the selection of other folders above it in the view unless the Shift key is intentionally pressed to select multiple items simultaneously.

Possibly related selection issue in Dolphin (Details View with single-click enabled) I would like to point out a similar issue I've reported here: ➡️ https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=504918 (My report describes a selection problem in Dolphin’s Details view when using single-click mode.) Summary: After switching the KDE setting to single-click behavior, clicking on one file sometimes causes multiple unrelated files above it to become selected, without using the Shift key. This happens sporadically, but regularly enough to interfere with normal file handling. This sounds very similar to what is described in this report. It may be part of the same underlying bug in Dolphin’s selection logic. Please consider investigating whether both issues share the same root cause. Thank you.
