Created attachment 169106 [details] Error message example SUMMARY I have a few symlinks on the desktop. If I want to locate the target, I usually open the Properties of the symlink, and then in the General tab I press the button next to the "Points to" text field. The text reported in the text field correctly represents the path of the target, but when I click the button it shows an error reporting that the path is not found. However, if you inspect the text of the error, you'll notice that the path is not found because "/home/%USER/Desktop" is prepended to the correct path. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Find (or create) a symlink on the Plasma desktop 2. Open the Properties for the symlink 3. In the General tab locate the "Points to" entry field 4. Check that the text in the entry field correctly represents the full path to the target of the symlink 5. Press the button besides the "Points to" entry field OBSERVED RESULT An error message is shown, with a message like this: "The file or folder /home/cris/Desktop/home/cris/Nextcloud-FS/CartellaCondivisa/Documentazione da Cristiano/Mappa_Servizi.ods does not exist." Notice that "/home/%USER/Desktop/" is prepended to the correct full path. EXPECTED RESULT The target of the symlink should be revealed.
