    The desktop file isn't nautilus.desktop but org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop.
    Try this:
    1. $ xdg-mime default org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop inode/directory
    Copy the Code

    You can't change that, because whole DDE is tied to the dde-file-manager, but you can do this:


    2. sudo mv /usr/bin/dde-file-manager /usr/bin/dde-file-manager.bak
    3. sudo ln -s /usr/bin/nautilus /usr/bin/dde-file-manager
    Copy the Code


    In this case desktop will not work if you click on Properties with right mouse click on the desktop item.

    Here is code to restore to dde-file-manager:


    2. sudo rm /usr/bin/dde-file-manager
    3. sudo mv /usr/bin/dde-file-manager.bak /usr/bin/dde-file-manager
    Copy the Code


    It works for me as I'm not fan of the dde-file-manager... yet.

    One more thing. When I open some folder, it opens with Nautilus, but when I'm going to save a file, it opens with Deepin File Manager. It is possible to modify that too?
