Status is "expired", but this is still here in late 2019 on Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS. A behavioral work-around for me is to use Super+# to open the (pinned) Nautilus from the dock ... then use Ctrl+l to get to wherever I *really* want to go.
But it's definitely a bug: as Marc Nijdam said, it's obviously due to some invalid `x-nautilus-desktop:///` argument which is passed to the Nautilus invocation. I don't know where in the labyrinth of Ubuntu/Nautilus/Debian/Gnome repositories this argument arises, but it would seem that a simple fix, valid for most users, would be simply to hard-code `$USER/Desktop\` instead. This would at least be better than the current state of affairs, which works for no one. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1710931 Title: Ctrl+N shortcut does not work when desktop has focus Status in Nautilus: Expired Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: When a Nautilus window is open, Ctrl+N opens a new window that shows the same folder as the focused Nautilus window. However, when the desktop is focused, the shortcut doesn't work - instead I see an error that x-nautilus-desktop:// is not supported. This functionality was previously reported as working in #307229.
