Google Chrome and Openbox


Hi guys, I am using ArchBang and I can't integrate Google Chrome to my DE (Openbox) and my file manager (SpaceFM). When I click on a downloaded file nothing happens, show in folder? Nothing too. Any idea? I tried everything on xdg-utils and I can't get it working. Opera didn't work either. Firefox worked flawslessly.

Do you have a notification application like python2-notify or xfce4-notifyd? I think they rely on your system's notification application while Firefox comes with its own.

But this is not about notifications, it is about integrating the softwares to the file manager. They don't interact, only Firefox.

I'm not sure what you are wanting to do. Maybe look at
~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list
