Getting Files/Nautilus to launch in a different folder
Credits goes to
Enmus - Starting/launching an application with arguments/parameters (qvm-run) - #6 by enmus
Instructions
-
Edit /user/share/applications/org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop inside your qube which launches Nautilus.
-
Add your desired “launch folder” to the end of the “Exec=” line.
(E.g. nautilus /home/user/temp) -
Change “DBusActivatable=true” to “DBusActivatable=false
Unfortunately this will also result in the Qubes domain Open File Manager option from the toolbar/panel opening two windows, I haven’t figured out how to solve this one yet.
