I've been searching for an embarassingly long time without finding a solution for this. Having to right-click files all day would be an exceedingly miserable experience. Is there any way to fix this?

Specifically we get the following error: enter image description here

  • Is <right click> Open with →Other application <select application> <mark> Remember application association... what you are looking for? Commented May 10, 2022 at 22:56
  • Sadly no. Even after applying that setting, the files continue to try to open as executables. Commented May 10, 2022 at 23:19

    Dolphin preferences → General → Confirmations → When open executable file → open in application? Commented May 10, 2022 at 23:22
  • Thank you so much, that's a huge help! I wish there was a way to have it apply only to .js files and not all executables, but close enough! (PS if you submit as an answer I will accept it) Commented May 10, 2022 at 23:57

    The underlying problem may be that all the files are marked as executables. ls -l *.js will show you that. If you mark them as not executable, say with chmod -x *.js you won't need to change the Dolphin preferences. Commented May 11, 2022 at 0:11
