When I run jo dir_name it doesn't open the folder in Windows Explorer but opens it in 'lynx' which I believe is a browser.

I installed nautilus and modified the default app for directories to this file.

And now I'm getting this error.

Is nautilus the preferred file explorer for terminal Ubuntu? If not, what other configs are required?

I get the following response:

> jo dotfiles                                                                                               [±master
jo:11: command not found: xdg-open

Would be awesome if explorer.exe were to open instead.

two years passed and there's still no solution to this..
I think this needs little modification caz you just need to run explorer.exe dir_name in wsl
hope this issue could be noticed..

For those lurking here with the same issue on Win 11 and WSL2 - quickest method for fixing this is pulling the repo, changing the lines as in #582 and build it from source.

FWIW having a small wrapper script named xdg-open on my path works just as well:

#!/bin/sh
explorer.exe "$@"

Use explorer.exe as file manager if available tarik02/autojump
