All Partitions open a window on boot


Hi

Since changing to 13.04 I have found that all my partitions mount in file manager. They all show in the side bar which they always did in previous versions but now all 10 or so partitions open a window when I boot into Ubuntu so i have to physicaly close each window. Dose any one know how to fix this, just the part about opening a window.

This should be settup in our file manager preferences.

As you do not state what FM you are using it is impossible to answer more fully.

Well I switched to Xfce before Gnome got to that point so am not sure where you should look.

Should be somewhere in there though.

You should be able to choose to have them mounted without "browsing" them when they mount.

The way both Canonical and Gnome are currently thinking you will probably have to find the config files for Nautilus. I would check the one in your ~/.hidden files first as those are your personal config files.

Hopefully someone on here is up to date on Nautilus and can be of more help.

My wife still uses a Gnome based DE but it is Mate on Debian 7. Caja, the FM there, is a fork of Nautilus 3.4 when it still had some usability and you could pretty easily configure it.

You should probably just get used to it because the way it is set up by default is the RIGHT way to use it. Just ask the folks setting it up.
