[SOLVED]make chromium adhere to defined file assoc by xdg-mime

For some reason chromium launches firefox as default app when i choose to open folder in which downloaded files reside -> when clicking on "show in folder".
It's frustrating - how do i configure chromium to open file manager defined by xdg-mime.

xdg-mime query default inode/directory 
spacefm.desktop;

I just struggled with a similar thing the other day in regard to chromium and xdg-open.

Make sure perl-file-mimeinfo is installed!
