I have one idea how this may happen, and it is related to using both Qt 5 and Qt 6 applications. It looks like Qt 5 tries to backslash-escape Unicode characters, whereas Qt 6 writes them without escaping. I filed a bug upstream documenting that behavior: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-133804. Unfortunately, given that Qt 5 is getting end of life soon, it is unlikely that we will see a fix in 5.15 branch. However, if you find a way to get this bug in Qt 6 applications only, it has higher chances of getting fixed. By the way, shortcuts are created simply by dragging directories to the left panel. -- Dmitry Shachnev
