Other apps try to open folders in Contour rather than the file manager #1423

Description

@jobukkit

Contour Terminal version

0.4.2-master-dbb8f274

Installer source

AUR (tried both stable and git)

Operating System

CachyOS (Arch Linux) with GNOME

Architecture

x86-64

Steps to reproduce

When Contour is installed, other apps try to open folders in Contour, rather than Nautilus. Removing Contour fixes the issue.

Expected Behavior

Having Contour installed shouldn't interfere with the file manager.

Actual Behavior

Contour opens and interprets the folder path as a shell to use. For example, when trying to browse the files of a Steam game:

Failed to spawn /home/myuser/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Unrailed
Trying login shell: "/usr/bin/nu"
