Nautilus (Gnome Files) won't open any files when used as default file manager on Xubuntu
I used to be able to use Nautilus fine on Xubuntu 18.04 but since I recently did a reinstall Nautilus now refuses to open files when I double click them, there's just a small flicker and then nothing happens.
This only happens if I set Nautilus to the default file manager if I leave Thunar as the default and just open Nautilus directly everything works fine.
