thank you Jaap!
I see that:

# cat xdg-open.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Exec=xdg-open
TryExec=xdg-open
Icon=file-manager
NoDisplay=true
X-Zim-AppType=file_browser;web_browser
Name=Default (xdg)

So it would suffice to change it so:
Exec=/usr/bin/konqueror

check, works! Thank you...
(better a dialog anyway...)
