Odd places menu glitch

Postby dedanna1029 » 06 May 2012, 04:43

I see that we are still having the issue here and there of Documents, what-have-you opening from the Places menu with VLC, Easytag, and other programs. There is a fix, and it's here, click 'er up.
I'd rather be a free person who fears terrorists, than be a "safe" person who fears the government.

You're welcome. :)

I've been battling with that dumb glitch for years. I keep the fix in my gnotes, and even when I do a clean full reinstall of the OS, I keep the .gnotes folder so I have it, in particular if I'm installing a different flavor of Linux, that way if it turns out to have that glitch, I can fix it. :)
