Hi All,

Just switched to KDE after being on GNOME since time began :)
I do have a really weird problem which I assume is something I have messed up since I can't find any reference to this 'bug' anywhere. I have a separate '/home' partition from my OS install - when I decided to upgrade from Ubuntu 20.04 to Kbuntu 20.10 I wiped and then reinstalled completely over my OS partition (/) but retained my '/home' partition.

Everything looks great and everything works except that in Dolphin when I search for anything (Documents, Images, files, etc) I get THREE entries in the results for every file that it finds - there are not 3 versions of everything on the disk ( ;D ) each entry points to a single file so what have I screwed up here and how do I fix it?

Any help much appreciated.

UM

Is your home partition NTFS by any chance? I noticed duplicate (but not triplicate) entries in Dolphin when I was looking at an old NTFS drive recently.
