Is it possible to set krusader as the default file manager in ubuntu 13.10?

I tried to defined it in system settings > details > default applications but there is nothing about file manager there.

          open your terminal with CTRL+ALT+T and paste this line



           sudo mv /usr/bin/nautilus /usr/bin/natilus.back && sudo ln -s /usr/bin/krusader /usr/bin/nautilus

          1) Make a folder in your home directory called bin



          mkdir ~/bin


          2) Make a script called Nautilus that executes Dolphin and put it in this folder



          gedit ~/bin/nautilus


          3) Then copy this code into it and save



          #!/bin/bash
          exec krusader $@
          exit 0


          This will launch krusader every time nautilus was to be launched.

          • I went with the other answer (because I'm lazy and it was only a one line solution), but now my desktop is black, no more wallpaper. Do you think it's related? Would your solution avoid that issue? How could I undo it in order to do yours?

            Just wanted to add a reminder to Bruno's excellent script to make sure you chmod it to be executable. I'm sure it's second nature for most, but it had me scratching my head for a minute or two.

          • If you want to set Nemo as the default file manager, run this command in Terminal:



            xdg-mime default nemo.desktop inode/directory application/x-gnome-saved-search



          • To revert this enter



            xdg-mime default nautilus.desktop inode/directory application/x-gnome-saved-search



          • Test it with



            xdg-open $HOME

            Another place where default file manager is configured (I use Debian 9.8):



            /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.freedesktop.FileManager1.service


            This file is used, for example, Eclipse IDE for run "System Explorer" through a call to dbus-send. The original file content looks as follows:



            [D-BUS Service]
            Name=org.freedesktop.FileManager1
            Exec=/usr/bin/nautilus --gapplication-service


            But you must write your own service to replace nautilus to use this config...

                      Another place where default file manager is configured (I use Debian 9.8):



                      /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.freedesktop.FileManager1.service


                      This file is used, for example, Eclipse IDE for run "System Explorer" through a call to dbus-send. The original file content looks as follows:



                      [D-BUS Service]
                      Name=org.freedesktop.FileManager1
                      Exec=/usr/bin/nautilus --gapplication-service


                      But you must write your own service to replace nautilus to use this config...
