Linux & Visual Studio Code: super + e

I just installed Visual Studio code a few minutes ago, and now I have this problem. When I press super + e instead of opening my explorer it now opens visual studio with it's explorer open. Obviously I do not want visual studio to be opened everytime I press this shortcut and would like to be able to use it to browse through files. Thanks for any help.

Update: It seems to have replaced the default explorer for alot of things, for example if I click on removable drives then click file manager, the folder will open up in vscode.

I figured out the solution, so the default file browser is called nemo for anyone who doesn't know. I simply had to use the command below in the terminal to set nemo as the default browser again and now it's all good.

xdg-mime default nemo.desktop inode/directory application/x-gnome-saved-search
