I'd rather say broken (or not optimized) than confusing. :) a) When entering a path manually (as I did) that actually does exist, it still shows the error "path does not exists". b) Contrary to your observation, the error also occurs when not providing the *.enc file at the end of a path. Suggestion: When a user enters a path that does not exists, it should just silently create it - or at least ask the user, if he wants to create it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=465763 --- Comment #3 from Ben Bonacci --- After some more testing, I stumbled upon something. If the vault location is selected with the file dialog button (which is what I done initially), there are no errors and the vault gets created successfully. However if a file path is typed out manually (which is what the reporter is doing), then the "this specified path does not exist" error appears. When typing the file path, it has to point to an empty folder (without *.enc) to be accepted. What is confusing to me is that the default path provided has *.enc added to the end (ironically it doesn't actually exist yet), which is implying to the end user that it also needs to be added to the new path, which causes the error if they do so. I don't know if this is a bug per-se, but it does cause some confusion. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=465763 --- Comment #2 from Julius R. --- Created attachment 156358 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=156358=edit Screenshot of the error Steps to reproduce: 1. Install plasma-vault and gocryptfs via pamac 2. Rebooting 3. Create a new vault, name 'test', setting password 4. Trying to change the path of either the encrypted data location or the mount point results in error 'The specified path does not exist'. It occurs immediately, when changing the first letter of the defaults. It also does not matter, wether the new path / folder exists, or not. See attached screenshot.

I was able to successfully make a new vault on an external drive with Plasma version 5.26.5. Would you be able to provide your system information (can be found in system settings -> about this system) as well as instructions on what you did when making the vault? This should help a developer or another triager figure out what the problem is. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
