Problem
The folder open button in the message composer uses a hardcoded file explorer. On macOS this opens Finder, on Windows it opens Explorer. There is no way for the user to choose which file explorer application handles folder opens.
Expected behavior
User can configure which file explorer is launched when clicking the folder open button in the message composer. Options could include the system default, or a custom path to an alternative explorer (e.g., Finder, Explorer, Raycast, etc.).
Proposed solution
- Add a setting in preferences to select/configure the file explorer used
- Store the preference and use it when the folder open button is clicked
- Fall back to system default if no custom selection is made
