    Is there any way on Deepin where we can change the default file manager? There's is no options to do that directly on "Control Center > Default Applications". Even if I stick Nautilus(file manager) to dock, every other application like "Trash" and "Google Chrome" keep opening "Deepin File Manager" which becomes kinda annoying. Would love to know if somebody else has a fix to that.

    replace dde-file-manager with nautilus

    if you wish uninstall default file manager
    logout / reboot

    Try this
    gedit  ~/.config/mimeapps.list
    replace dde-file-manager with nautilus

    This broke a lot of my icons, I cant seen to open nautilus anymore and kept Deepin File Manager as default file manager. Can't open gedit and use gksudo nautilus either.
