<ul></ul><p>I just tested on stable: the bug is also there.<br>
I also tested on Linux, and it doesn't happen there. Probably the cause is that Bash unlike Windows doesn't execute a file if you don't specify its extension, and because directories are files you can't make them have the same name.</p>
<p>This issue can be replicated with the <em>start</em> command on Windows' cmd: if the argument is a folder it will be opened by File Explorer, if it's an executable it's executed, but if there are both on the same directory the executable has priority. I suppose that's what Dolphin's "Open containing folder" is using under the hood.</p>
