File Manager
Change Default File Manager
In Linux Mint 20.04 running MATE, to change from the default Caja to use Thunar instead
sudo apt install thunar
Create a backup of MATE config
cp /usr/share/applications/defaults.list ~/
Then run
sudo vi /usr/share/applications/defaults.list
Search for inode and you will find the following
inode/directory=nemo.desktop;caja-folder-handler.desktop;org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop;Thunar.desktop
Edit it to be this
inode/directory=Thunar.desktop
Save, exit and reboot.
