How could I achieve that an image opened by clicking a favorite is opened with the same program that is assigned in "Default action":


Open image by clicking a favorite with the same program that is assigned in "Default action"?

but ONLY if the device is CONNECTED and active for data transfer. Otherwise I only see the parent directory similar to your screenshot.
Yes, the same here.

I use the left sidebar for favorites (instead of tree view). Both from there and from the main menu "Favorites" click on "Nokia 3.1" opens ...

Thank you very much! Also for finding the solution!

I have added the SD Card and the internal storage under menu "Favorites", but when I click that bookmark this is shown (so the Desktoop in both of the panels):

No, I don't. Not that I were aware of it. How do they look like?

How could I make it start faster?
