When I right click on a torrent and use the "open folder" option on the drop-down it automatically opens in ranger (a terminal file browser) when I want it to open in the Dolphin file manager. When I uninstalled ranger and then repeat this action, it opens the folder in Gwenview. The thing is that Dolphin is already my default file manager. How do I fix this so Transmission knows to automatically open the folder in Dolphin?

  • some programs have the nasty habit of taking over the "open folder" action in downloading applications (especially internet browsers). What happens when you do the same in your browser? https://askubuntu.com/questions/131695/firefoxs-open-folder-opens-gwenview , https://unix.stackexchange.com/q/296418/32012 –  Jan 30 '19 at 17:55
  • If I use "Open Containing Folder" from the downloads button on Firefox it views the folder in Dolphin – Electric Skeleton Feb 04 '19 at 05:27

  1. From the Applications menu, open MIME Type Editor
  2. Search for inode
  3. Change "inode/directory" to your preferred file manager.

From now on Transmission will use your chosen file manager.
