--- Comment #7 from pveax <pv...@mailforspam.com> --- > What do you have in your .config/baloofilerc file? Hi, tagwerk19! Currently it is: ``` [Basic Settings] Indexing-Enabled=false [General] dbVersion=2 exclude filters=<long line. hidden 'til the end of line> exclude filters version=8 only basic indexing=true ``` But I have that /home/<username> item in the `Folder specific configuration:` list. Most probably it is hard-coded somewhere. The issue `Reported: 2020-12-01`. Is it almost impossible to that bug to be that complicated to locate it in code and to understand why it was hard-coded instead of using configuration which contains the `~/.config/baloofilerc` file. Probably the bug is poor-described. Let me fix it: Behavior is the next: 0. Press "Start" btn (meta key) 1. Open `System Settings`. 2. Go to `Workspace` section. Than `Search` -> `File search`. 3. Check `Enable File Search` to enable it. The `Folder specific configuration:` became editable. It contains /home/<username> item with the `indexed` option chosen by default. it is the only item in the list. 4. Press `Apply`. 5. Switch to `KRunner` item in the left panel (there are 3 items only, 3rd is `Web Search Keywords`). 6. Switch back to `File Search` item. Only 1 item is present. No changes. the `~/.config/baloofilerc` file became: ``` [General] dbVersion=2 exclude filters=<hidden> exclude filters version=8 only basic indexing=true ``` 7. We have only one item listed. Change it mode from `Indexed` to `Not indexed`. 8. Hit `Apply` btn. No I see the the only item in that list. The `~/.config/baloofilerc` file became: ``` [General] dbVersion=2 exclude filters=<hidden> exclude filters version=8 exclude folders[$e]=$HOME/ only basic indexing=true ``` 9. Re-do the (5) and (6) steps (so just switch to show another component settings and back). 10. Now I see that 2 items are listed: /home/<username> Indexed /home/<username> Not indexed The `~/.config/baloofilerc` file became: ``` [General] dbVersion=2 exclude filters=<hidden> exclude filters version=8 exclude folders[$e]=$HOME/ only basic indexing=true ``` So on some stage of (9) step some component adds that additional "/home/<username> Indexed" item. That's the point of bug. Let a user to manage the list without malware-like behavior of constantly added of the "/home/<username> Indexed" (so non-removable) item. It is not about config: `~/.config/baloofilerc` does not rule that unwanted silent behavior. Most probably it is hard-coded. --- Current System Info: ``` Operating System: Manjaro Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.22.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.85.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Kernel Version: 5.14.0-0-MANJARO (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 ``` Are there any more questions?
