Public bug reported: Hello, I had a launcher for a location (a directory) on my desktop before upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04. It stopped working after the upgrade, reporting that there was no application associated at opening the directory. I even tried to create a new launcher, but it resulted in the same error. A workaround is prefixing the directory path with file:/ Then it works, but I think it would be more user friendly if it didn't require the 'file:/' part.
