It is hooked into the desktop:

Given the settings, it should already have the mimetype setup or at least its working for me on manjaro for snap.

Though I'll take a look into it after work in about an hour. May need to alter stuff for AppImage.

This should be added to the README.md tbh

Turns out the reason that this was no longer being set it electron-builder removing desktop integration as part of the tool in v21

I will revert the builder back down to v20 so we can get the proper desktop integration, though ill also link this issue to the readme.

Yup downgrading brings back this menu. I was wondering why it had vanished and though it was some weird manjaro update not electron builder.

Btw im back to actively developing my projects so if you guys have any more issues or suggestions feel free to poke me. (I am trying to do more to get experience writing software so this is just fun to experiment)

Ill upload a version with this later unless i find a reason no to.

Seems there is a reason behind it, though ill look to get some stuff working still https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/releases/tag/v21.0.1
