viewer for X.509 certificate

  • 772

Previously X.509 certificates would open properly. I do not know what changed but currently they are opening as text files and shown in gedit. How can I revert to the original behaviour?

Edit: I was asked for more information. Previously the file opened to display human readable information about the certificate. When it opens as a text file in gedit there are only hexadecimal numbers between a header and footer.

    In Nautilus right click the .crt (certificate file) and select Properties and click the Open With tab. Click the Reset button.

    The application used to view it will be reset to what Nautilus calls "View file".
