This is quite annoying, especially for non-pro users who are unable to install software downloaded from the internet. I don’t remember this being the case with 19.04. Is there a way to change this via a bash script, the default app to open certain extensions? For .deb it should be Software… for .t…

Allright I will test. Noticed it’s snap-store_ubuntu-software-local-file.desktop that probably needs to be changed to gnome-software-local-file.desktop To replace all other stuff that is assigned to non-Budgie apps, where can I find the list of application names? For example org.gnome.Totem.deskto…

well, yes- just to be clear while the mimeapps list is user specific, it is persistent (not session specific)

using the menu - drag the app icon to your desktop Then open a terminal: cd ~/Desktop ls *.desktop This will show the full desktop file name for the icon

For example: open a photo, you will start with an extremely zoomed in view of a portion of your photo. And there is nothing obvious …

This behavior seems correct to me, @zilexa surely simple enough to open with a preferred application or change personal defaults as an individual, pretty sure this applies to all operating systems… :wink:

I don’t think you understand. When someone double clicks on a JPEG, he or she expects to see the photo. This is impossible with Budgie 20.04. but IS possible with Budgie 19.04 and 19.10. Nothing correct about that. Try any other Ubuntu flavour and you can see a photo when you double click on it. W…

@jesssullivan This is what happens in UB 20.04 when I double click a JPEG file. On any consumer OS, the photo would be shown. I see some vague canvas, can’t even be sure it’s part of my photo. And there is nothing I can do here in this program, nothing obvious anyway, to show my photo. I have to kn…
