    Issue with opening Dolphin from programs

    Good day

    Not to sure how to explain this one but when i have a program open that has a function like "view file at" or similar wording (discord, lutris, obs to name some examples) when clicked will call a program called "WSLview" which will appear loading in the task bar for about 2-3 seconds before failing to load and close.

    i can use dolphin just fine normally if i go to that first..but through a program it will not work. a little google tells me that this is some program to use linux in windows but i don't understand why its here

    If anyone has some insight on this issue, i would be thankful for any assistance

    Thank you

    Probably that crappy Ubuntu bug with Gimp-help

    try uninstalling the package wslu
    Code:
    sudo apt remove wslu

      Is the default file manager set to dolphin in your settings?
