Clicking on Home Folder, Desktop, Disc Filesystem, etc. => "Error File not found."

You just need to re-associate opening folders with nautilus

I am sorry me very dummy I do not quite understand everything. I typed 'nautilus' in terminal and hit enter key. Yes Home Folder and Desktop opened up, but when I clicked on Main Menu and clicked Home Folder and then Desktop, both time => 'Error: File not found.' They opened up ok when I clicked them in 'Computer' box. How do I install nautilus in Home Folder and Desktop and also USB or Disk icons not listed in 'Computer' box?

You need to right click a folder in nautilus and tell it to be opened with nautilus and remember

Simply running nautilus does NOTHING. You need to change your config

I clicked open 'Search for files...' to look for nautilus. There popped up a box indicating 117 Files Found that contain the word, nautilus. Which one? I right clicked some 'nautilus' files and folders, but nothing happened. Did I misunderstand the above tip? Where can I find actual nautilus?

There was only one box that got me stuck to send my response to the
problem. There was no 'I still need answer' box to click on.

Right click a folder and select 'open with another application'

Select nautilus from the list then tick 'remember this application for folder files' then click ok

Problem solved....

I right clicked the folder of 'Home Folder' and then the folder of 'Desktop', but the 'error: file not found' box popped up both times! no matter either left or right clicking seems to result the error.

My problem is not yet solved. I had no choice but to click on only one that is 'This solved problem.' See above. There was no box that reads, 'I still need answer.' Otherwise I would have clicked this box. Anyway, I found 'Nautilus Actions Configuration Tool' in Synaptic Package Manager. I looked at as to try to find out how I could fix the problem. Is it a right software? If so, where can I find instruction on how to use it? Thank you. Jim
