For e.g, when I am uploading an image for a webpage in chrome, and use "Upload from Computer", it automatically opens up Finder. I want to use an alternative (say CommanderOne or PathFinder) to be the default for this.

    What do you mean with "opens up Finder"? Do you want to change the File Picker dialog you get in such cases?

  • Yes, I want the "File Picker" to be a different program.

  • DefaultFolderX is designed to do just that: stclairsoft.com/DefaultFolderX

Reset to default

Unfortunately, you can’t change the default file manager on macOS. It’s hooked too deeply into the rest of the system.

The only way for you to be able to have a different file picking dialog in Chrome is if Google made significant changes to support changing it. This won’t happen.
