Hi!

Whenever I right-click in most folders, an "Open With" menu appears. I seriously want to remove that xD
Is that possible?

Here's what it looks like https://i.imgur.com/car6fQS.png
I want to remove that, so that all right-clicks look like this: https://i.imgur.com/txxN88B.png

Thanks!

And why would you remove this?


Running Kubuntu 22.10 with Plasma 5.26.3, Frameworks 5.100.0, Qt 5.15.6, kernel 5.19.0-23 on Ryzen 5 4600H, AMD Renoir, X11
FWIW: it's always useful to state the exact Plasma version (+ distribution) when asking questions, makes it easier to help ...

Because it's annoying. I've been using KDE since 2006 or so and I don't really remember having this menu there, so every time I try to create a new folder that menu is there. It's super annoying.

Just because you don't use it doesn't mean it has its reason, and I use it quite often...

I think there's a miscommunication problem from my side :P
I don't want it removed for everybody, I just want to remove it from my desktop :D

As a freedom advocate, I would never want to impose myself on others, but I do want to customize my desktop to my liking.

I am not a developer, but I guess you would have to modify the sources to your needs and recompile it.
