right click to open folder opens vscodium [SOLVED]

When i install VScodium and i right click in an application other then VScodium itself, and click on an option to open my file explorer (nautilus) it will open Vscodium instead of nautilus.
this only happens when i have Vscodium installed, when its uninstalled it will open nautilus.

Re: right click to open folder opens vscodium [SOLVED]

thank you this helped me allot!

the answer was:
edit "~/.config/mimeapps.list"
add/change "inode/directory=[file manager.desktop]"

edit "/usr/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache"
add/change "inode/directory=[file manager.desktop]"
