Description Christopher English 2004-09-21 04:27:42 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
I am unable to open any folders in Nautilus after changing the 'Open with...'
action for folders.  I had been attempting to open a folder in a terminal and
was able to do so using 'Open with...'. However after doing this I was unable 
to open folders from within Nautilus. Removing the open with terminal from the
menu had no effect other than to show an error message saying that "there is 
no action for folders".

Steps to reproduce:
1. Choose 'open with...' on a folder in nautilus
2. Choose a program, eg gnome-terminal
3. Remove the program from the list of actions for folders
4. Try to open a folder in nautilus

Actual results:
An error message is displayed saying there is no action for folders.

Expected results:
The folder should be opened inside nautilus.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
Note this is a problem for browser mode, if you add Nautilus itself as an 
action for folders then you can open folders but in a separate window.
