User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:128.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/128.0
Steps to reproduce:
Using about:profiles I tried to open my profile directory with the Profile Manager. To solve this issue I changed inode/directory= Archive manager (default) with inode/directory= File manager
Actual results:
I got a warming: Command not found
Expected results:
Thunar should have opened the profile directory

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Toolkit::Startup and Profile System' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

The profile manager just calls nsIFile::Reveal here which on linux ends up in nsGIOService so I think this belongs in the GTK component.
I notice that there were some changes to that function in Firefox 129, do you still see this with current nightly versions of Firefox?

I'm not using the nightly version, but I happen to have another version of Firefox on the same machine: 134.0. It was behaving in the same way, and the change I made in “Default applications” also solved the problem.

Can you elaborate on what that change was, I'm not sure I understand it.

Xfce > Settings > Default Applications > inode/directory > Default was set to Archive Manager, I changed it to File Manager.

I checked on another laptop with (Debian 11 / Xfce) installed that I have and that does not have this problem, it is not “Default” but “Set by” that is indicated and as I have never touched this setting that I did not know about it must be original. I'm not sure that Set by is the correct expression, I translated it from the French.

May be related to Bug 1285711. We should add logging to GIO code to get info which apps is opened and why.

It is likely changed by accident. Find all *-mimeapps.list files in the system (ex, find /usr -name '*mimeapps.list'). One of these files should have it.

Finally get to add more logging to GIO service. When Bug 2014128 lands please run latest nightly on terminal with MOZ_LOG="GIOService:5" env variable and you'll see what's going on.
