SpaceFM as root suddenly won't let me set a default program or action to open a script - worked fine this morning.

The Github is even deader than this forum. Can anybody suggest why SpaceFM invoked with sudo in Lubuntu might suddenly decide to alter my default app for scripts and not let me reset it? I had it set to an editor, but now it insists on executing the script. And it won't recognize the regular gui method of assigning a default app through right-click on the file, open, right- click on the entry, Set-as-default. The entries are there. I can go through the motions, but nothing changes. I've used it for years and it was fine this morning. It's 1.0.6 under the Openbox DE in Lubuntu 24.04. It also won't let me change the size of the icons on the toolbar. Again, I can go through the motions, but it doesn't respond. I'm not sure when that started, a few weeks back, maybe, maybe longer. As Regular user, it still works fine. I'm beginning to think about changing a lot of perms so I just use the regular unprivileged Spacefm. Double clicking on a file expecting it to open in an editor and instead it executes - that's damned dangerous. I may have to give this up.

Is this option checked maybe? "Preferences > Interface > Click run executables "
