I am a bit new to linux. I don’t know what I moved and all my desktop(not the ones in the menu or the bar) Icons open Steam and when you click on properties and so on they open the folder they are meant to open.
Anyone would be kind enought to give a hint. Google did not wish to teach me the Linux lesson of the day.
In you home ~/.config - check the mimeapps.list. Somehow you have associated .desktop files with steam. You can safely rename the file or remove it.
[Added Associations]
text/plain=org.gnome.gedit.desktop;
application/pdf=org.gnome.Evince.desktop;libreoffice-draw.desktop;
inode/directory=jetbrains-phpstorm.desktop;steam-native.desktop;
[Default Applications]
x-scheme-handler/jetbrains=jetbrains-toolbox.desktop
text/html=vivaldi-stable.desktop
x-scheme-handler/http=vivaldi-stable.desktop
x-scheme-handler/https=vivaldi-stable.desktop
x-scheme-handler/about=vivaldi-stable.desktop
x-scheme-handler/unknown=vivaldi-stable.desktop
Truth being told Im lost here…
In the ~/.config/mimeapps.list file you have posted above, in the [Default Applications] section, add this line:
inode/directory=org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop
(since you’ve tagged the thread with ‘Gnome’, I suppose you’re using Nautilus as your file manager)
Save the file and try to open the mentioned folders again.
Thank You
