I've just tried this on dolphin from git master and am unable to reproduce the issue.

If you start dolphin from konsole (or any other terminal) does it show any output when you open dolphin, the properties dialogue or the share tab?

This might be a distro configuration issue.

Can you also please check samba and kdenetwork-filesharing are installed?

Hello,
Thank you for your answer. Yes, I have both of the packages installed. Here's the log from starting Dolphin and opening properties:

Pasting pastebin contents in to ticket in case the paste expires and for searchability.

Hopefully the dolphin developers can assist further. The only thing I can think of that might be related is the last line about denied access to dbus. Maybe dolphin talks to samba over dbus to query/setup shares.

Thank you very much!
I think it's worth to mention that today I tried Plasma 6.2 Arch repositiory and since the system says it's 6.1.90, the watermark insists it's 6.2 Beta and it's actually this version for I have copy/paste dialog wich reappears exactly in 6.2.

 It might be worth trying to downgrade and see if the problem is there with Plasma stable.

Strange, before I downgrade I decided just to restart the PC and now the Share tab is working fine. I'm sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your time!
