but shown at "https://../app/files/files"
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Use Folder Tree (file settings -> enable folder tree)
- Navigate to a folder so that the URL starts
https://../app/files/folders - Create a folder description file Readme.md with content to display
Expected behavior
Content of Readme.md should show at the top of the folder contents window
Actual behaviour
Nothing is shown

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with Folder Tree enabled and compare the folder-description handling for URLs beginning with /files/folders and /files/files. Inspect the entry point responsible for rendering the folder contents window; done when Readme.md content appears at the top for the /files/folders path and the behavior is verified in both desktop and Android browsers.
