no - definitely /etc/budgie-desktop folder - the file is installed by the budgie-desktop-environment package. I’ve double checked on a clean 20.10 install.
Strange, I did a clean install yesterday. Perhaps it got deleted somehow. Maybe I should reinstall budgie-desktop-environment see if it returns.
sudo apt install --reinstall -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confask,confnew,confmiss" budgie-desktop-environment
That will reinstall and ensure /etc/ config files are also reinstalled at the same time.
I think I am going crazy. I still do not have that folder.
$ sudo apt install --reinstall -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confask,confnew,confmiss" budgie-desktop-environment

I remember yesterday I installed a few applications, also removed one that I had just installed.
I installed a new kernel. When I confirmed all was working I ran Bleachbit, I selected for Apt: autoclean, autoremove, clean cache, clean package lists. And it cleared temporary files and caches. Then I created a snapshot with Timeshift. Should have created one before running Bleachbit…
You are on 20.04 - not 20.10!
The change hasn’t been SRU’d back to 20.04 yet - I’m giving it couple of weeks or more before I begin the process.
OMG!
I downloaded Budgie a few weeks ago, 20.10 was already released but I didn’t pay attention if I downloaded the latest version. Just put it on a USB stick and installed it… damn. Sorry to waste your time. I will update today!
What would be the right method to change the default musicplayer (rythmbox>deadbeef) and text editor (gedit>pluma) via the terminal?
I tried simply replacing their occurances in /etc/budgie-desktop/defaults.list but after a reboot, the default app is still the old one, even though the changes are correct in defaults.list.
not sure - but if you right click - choose the open with and set as default method it should add the defaults in ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list - so you could add that file as part of your post install.
