Baloo finds directories ok, but KRunner does not?

I’m trying to open KRunner and go to a folder called “dev” in my home directory.

Checking baloo, everything seems fine:

❯ baloosearch6 dev/ | rg "home/username/dev"
/home/username/dev
/home/gremious/dev/subfolder
== Snip of like a billion subfiles/folders ==

I even did balooctl6 index /home/username/dev/ .

However, KRunner does not see that “dev” folder at all:

I would like it to show up as like, top result.

Is there a way to search specifically for directories I’m supposed to be using? Or something I need to update?

KDE Plasma 6.3.3
krunner 6.3.3
Baloo 6.12.0
EndeavourOs (Arch Based)

Hi! For what it’s worth, could you double-check the System Settings > Workspace > File Search screen? It might be worth it to see if it’s showing a path that would include your desired folder as “Indexed” or not?

Thank you, unfortunately, all I have is just my home folder indexed fully and that’s it:

Locations are ticked in krunner settings right?

Yes, everything is on
