Kubuntu 18.04 can't set default web browser
Not ideal but I used the with the following command:
option on Default Applications dialog in Kubuntu 18.04. For Firefox I would assume this would work: /usr/bin/firefox %s
. I prefer Google Chrome so I used: /usr/bin/google-chrome %s
What was helping me:
(I am using Kubuntu 18.04 LTS) find the following file
/home/USERNAME/.config/mimeapps.list
and edit it like this:
[Default Applications]
application/x-desktop=doublecmd.desktop;
inode/directory=doublecmd.desktop;
inode/symlink=pcmanfm.desktop
text/html=google-chrome.desktop
x-scheme-handler/http=google-chrome.desktop
x-scheme-handler/https=google-chrome.desktop
The last two x-scheme-handler/...
lines were empty for me, so I wrote google chrome there as I prefer chrome.
