Newbie here, pls go easy on me
Just installed KDE on my Win 10 laptop and connected with android phone.
When I am using send file option in android and sending say mp3, jpeg etc. files to my laptop, they are getting saved as files of type 'file.
I need to manually add the extension to them. Does that happen?

I can't reproduce this here, sending a file with a *.jpg extension is received under the exact same name, with the correct extension.

Thanks for your response. I will try again and update you.
Meanwhile please see this persistent issue.my KDE Connect-Connection drops after few mins.

Using KDE Connect on my Win 10 laptop and android mobile. Initially it all connects ok, but then drops after few minutes and I get this message on Win KDE - 0 devices connected.

Failed to execute program org.kde.kdeconnect: The system cannot...

Android version says not connected to any device

Please let me know how to keep the connection alive between the two devices.

I don't use Windows, so can't help you here, sorry. Works flawlessly on Linux and Android.

Okay no worries...I will wait for someone who uses Win 10 to help me here.

Please confirm one thing for me...when you get a phone call in mobile, do you just get an option to mute the call in Linux or does it allow to receive the call via Linux? In Windows I just get notification to mute the incoming call.

AFAICS I can only mute calls, but I don't think the idea is to actually get calls on the PC, but to be able to mute the phone ringing sound and still see incoming calls.

okay, thanks for the clarification
However, it does allow you to reply Whatsapp/SMS messages directly from PC, right?

I don't think so and that is again not the point of the app.

Anyway, if you are using WhatsApp, why don't you just use WhatsApp web in your browser?

Okay got it..thanks!
I will wait for someone using Windows to confirm on the connection issue.
Happy Sunday wishes and stay safe.
