Bug ID: 417012
Summary: Clicking a desktop shortcut through the "Actions"
context menu passes the .desktop file as an argument
to the program
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.17.5
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Desktop Containment

Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
When I open Brave by right-clicking its desktop shortcut, choosing "Actions",
then "New Window", it passes the .desktop file as an argument to the program.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the KDE Application launcher widget and search for Brave
2. Drag the Brave app to your desktop
3. Choose the "link here" option when prompted.
4. Right click the Brave desktop icon, hover over the "Actions" menu, then
select either "New Window" or "New Incognito Window".
OBSERVED RESULT
It opens the .desktop file in the URL bar.
(/usr/share/applications/brave-browser.desktop). This makes me think that KDE
is appending the .desktop file to the launch command for whatever reason.
EXPECTED RESULT
It shouldn't open the .desktop file in the browser.
