## <a id="file-manager"></a>How do I fix the default file manager (Linux)?
In some case, VSCodium becomes the file manager used to open directories (instead of apps like Dolphin or Nautilus).<br />
It's due to that no application was defined as the default file manager and so the system is using the latest capable application.
To set the default app, create the file `~/.config/mimeapps.list` with the content like:
```
[Default Applications]
inode/directory=org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop;
```
You can find your regular file manager with the command:
```
> grep directory /usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache
inode/directory=codium.desktop;org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop;
```

This is a common question for Visual Studio Code and the procedure is slightly different in VSCodium because the `defaults` path is different. This is a common question for Visual Studio Code and the procedure is slightly different in VSCodium because the `defaults` path is different.
