Manual Install

If not downloading from the KDE Store, install manually:

Move the file openVSCode.desktop into the Service Menus folder:

• KDE Plasma 5: ~/.local/share/kservices5/ServiceMenus
• KDE Plasma 6: ~/.local/share/kio/servicemenus

Set as executable:

chmod +x ./openVSCode.desktop

Customization

By default, the extension works on directories (i.e. inode/directory). If you prefer the extension to work on all file types, edit the file openVSCode.desktop by replacing the line MimeType=inode/directory with MimeType=all/all.
