[SOLVED] configure qbittorrent to open file:// in rox instead of ...

When I select "open destination folder " in qbittorrent, it will open a file:// url in my firefox.

How can I configure qbittorrent to use rox instead?

Hehehe. I asked the same question last year on the Deluge forums:
http://forum.deluge-torrent.org/viewtop … =7&t=34667


Run xdg-open /tmp from a terminal and see if it open /tmp in Firefox. If it does, run:

sudo leafpad /usr/bin/xdg-open

Then search for "firefox" (Ctrl+F) and replace it with... I donno... Replacing it with "dolphin" here worked ok. Try "rox".

I have made a personal commitment not to reply in topics that start with a lowercase letter. Proper grammar and punctuation is a sign of respect, and if you do not show any, you will NOT receive any help (at least not from me).

Check/set your mime association for 'application/x-directory'
