Hey mom :) I might have to look for duplicates as this may have been reported already, but I'm reassigning it to nautilus for the moment.
Here's how to reproduce : - Right click on a folder, select "Open with" and select "other application" - Choose some application, for this bug it's totem but for me it's usually Baobab - Leave the "Remember this application for "folder" files" checked (it is by default) - Click on "open" - Now every time you click on some folder in the "Places" menu, it will open with that application. To fix this, open a nautilus window and repeat the "Open with" procedure, choosing either "File manager" or "Open folder" Nevertheless I consider this to be a valid bug, in my opinion it should even be considered for the Hundred Papercuts. ** Summary changed: - when movie player is intalled it launches automatically when I try to open any file in "places" + Remember this application for folder files prevents from opening nautilus from "places" menu -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/734937 Title: Remember this application for folder files prevents from opening nautilus from "places" menu -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
