Welcome to the world of spatial browsing ;). This post describes two ways it can be turned off:

Yes, Nautilus spatial browsing was rather controversial when it came out. Some people love it and others hate it. I turn it off, personally.

Yeah, "spatial browsing" was revolutionary--BACK IN 1984. The Mac as well as the Mac inspired Amiga and Atari ST all used "spatial browsing", which was a perfectly fine way of doing things back when home computers didn't have hard drives. With floppy discs, opening up folders into a new window meant you didn't have to waste time navigating back and forth between folders.
But with the larger capacity of hard drives, this was just a recipe for massive screen clutter headaches. |
