One of the things that annoyed me about using Fedora 11 is the way the default filesystem browser behaved whenever you decided to enter a folder – it would automatically open a new file browser window.
This WILT shows you how to make Nautilus open the folder in the same window rather than spawning a new window.
- Open a new Nautilus window by double clicking on any folder on your Desktop, or by clicking through Places -> Home Folder.
- Select Edit -> Preferences.
- Under the Behavior tab, enable the Always open in browser windows checkbox.
That’s it. I blame it on a poorly labelled toggle that sounds more like Nautilus is going to open files in my web browser.
