SUMMARY

I'm on Arch with Thunar file manager and kde connect. When I click on "browse device", instead of seeing the my device mounted on the file manager, a new page in my browser gets opened with this link:

`kdeconnect://26f4e312238245cba3135d26e0034448`

If I install Dolphin then on Dolphin it works, but not on Thunar.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Arch Linux updated.

Moving to the kde-connect project

Please provide the information about your system, as mentioned in the template. You can get this by running
kinfo

Also, please let us know the version of KDE Connect you have. Thanks.

I don't have kinfo command. I'm not on KDE Desktop. I'm using KDE Connect with Arch + i3wm + Thunar.

KDE Connect Version: 25.08.0
