nautilus not working in 8.1 upgrade

Asked by Ian Brownlie

 I have just upgraded to 8.1 today and when I click on to Places>Home Folder, I get a splash screen for 'Open Office.org 2.4. When I start nautilus in the command line, it works fine. However, when I reboot it's not working again. Can somebody help with this please.

 After investigating, I now find that nothing on the places menu works.

Please open nautilus from command line or by pressing on a desktop without other opened window ALT+F2 keyboard keys and write into opened window nautilus.

Nautilus come in front of you select a directory on the right nautilus frame and right click with mouse a drop down menu come in front of you go to the end of this menu and select:
Properties - click on "Open with" tab
Select "Open Folder" application if it is already into list
If you don't have "Open Folder" listed please press the "+ Add" button and Select "Open folder" from the opened list of applications.
Then be sure "Open Folder" is selected

Hope this helps
