The rest of the 'sensible' world uses Forward Slash (correctly IMO). On this OS we need to copy the path many times and paste it somewhere like the file name field in an open/save dialogue. Windows is too dumb to resolve the forward slash/backslashing in this field. User has to go to M$ File Explorer to copy the path or use another approach. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. 2. 3. OBSERVED RESULT EXPECTED RESULT SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: 11 23H2 macOS: I Wish (available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window) Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Looks like this is rectified in dolphin-master-4819-windows-cl-msvc2022-x86_64 thx heaps
actually not fixed in this build, still showing forward slashes in path bar but right click a file copy file location actually does use back slashes
