Hi @linub,

Try the following (from my ~/.config/mimeapps.list):

[...]
[Default Applications]
[...]
x-scheme-handler/http=firefox-developer-edition.desktop;
x-scheme-handler/https=firefox-developer-edition.desktop;
[...]

(Of course, use your own .desktop file preference.)

Hope this helps!

can i freely delete lines from this file and they will recreate them selves if needed?
can i delete the whole file and get a clean one next time it needs to be?

I have no idea, but I think so. I might be wrong, though.

Best would be to test. Just rename the file and see:

mv ~/.config/mimeapps.list ~/.config/mimeapps.list.backup

it is set correctly on my side,the same as in this picture.

i renamed it,deleted it but couldn’t get rid of Abiword so i went with @Mirdarthos solution.
i don’t know why it didn’t recreate a blank new file after i renamed or deleted it.
