  • KDE Plasma 6 will require users to double-click on files and folders to open them by default.

This is one of the first things I always tweak in KDE, so I love this change, but I’m curious how others feel.

    I think it was windows 98 that introduced “hovering on an item” = single click and single click = double click. Disabled by default of course

      It was introduced by “Active Desktop”, which came with IE4. So if you installed IE4, you also got this on Windows 95.
