Re: f20 - Changing your default file browser

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Steven,
My original reply is being held for list moderator's review due
to its length, it has a couple of pictures..

I will be happy to email it directly if you give me your email.

The information without the graphics follows:

# yum install -y nemo alacarte

Set Nemo as Default File browser:

# alacarte

Once alacarte is running, in the left hand pane, choose the Accessories category. 
The right hand pane should list two items with the Label "Files".

Disable the nemo entry (the Files entry with the folder icon) by deselecting the checkbox beside the folder icon. Next, edit the nautilus entry (the one with the Filing Cabinet icon), by selecting it, and choosing properties.
In the Dialog that pops up, change the command from "nautilus %U" to "nemo %U"

Good luck
