Description: Plasma filemanager focusing on usability
Due to the current situation, I am slower with updates. Hope it didn't get
removed.
I do have activities and semantic-desktop enabled on mine.
I attached a screenshot where I found the setting.
I also found it in the config-file:
FILE: ~/.config/dolphinrc
SECTION:
---
[General]
OpenExternallyCalledFolderInNewTab=false
Version=200
ViewPropsTimestamp=2016,6,16,18,3,14

If you can't find the setting in the menus, maybe this will work.
