Thanks Patrick, but that's why I mentioned that Krusader is my
preferred file manager. It's already set there, although "there" is
system settings->Apps & Windows->Default Applications, in the KDE
system settings at least. Are you referring to a Gnome system setting
tool? I can't find access to that.
No, I meant the KDE one. You can see the Gnome one by installing gnome-
control-center. I run it via a script:
------
#!/bin/sh
# Call g-c-c when not running under Gnome
eval XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME gnome-control-center
------
Of course that may not show any difference.
I've just tried this with Firefox 134.0a1 which has been installed
from upstream not from the Fedora repositories and I get the same
thing, although in my case the default file manager is Dolphin. My
guess with this is its a Fedora defect. If I change the default File
Manage to "Files" then the Firefox show in folder functionality only
shows a single Files window. Whether Files is being issued by
Firefox or not I don't know (I suspect it may be to make that
interface consistent across all platforms) but if it is then it is a
KDE defect to launch the default File Manager as well if it is not
"Files".
