I'm unsure of how else to target it without manually locating the application.<br><br>Regards,<br><br><br><br>Shawn B.</div></div><div dir="ltr"><hr><span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: bold;">From: </span><span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><a href="mailto:jeff@projectcc.org">Jeff Hanson</a></span><br><span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: bold;">Sent: </span><span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">6/9/2014 11:30 AM</span><br><span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: bold;">To: </span><span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><a href="mailto:xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com">Xubuntu Development Discussion</a></span><br><span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-weight: bold;">Subject: </span><span style="font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">How to choose application to launch file with?</span><br><br></div><div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div><div>I keep trying to open files/links for torrents or software center links, etc that I don't have a default application for in Xubuntu and it brings up that dialog box that says:<br>
