I didn't know it was impossible when I did it.

Thank you very much, Conny. This group is fast on the help, and I
really appreciate it!

That doesn't seem to work in the 10.04.1 edition. There is no File
Manager entry under
Applications. But Conny's suggestion, which came just before yours,
works 100%. You
probably have a different edition. But thanx!

Just for the record, two routes to the same app.

In Ubuntu 10.04.1:

System/ Preferences/ File Manager/ Behavior/ Single clic to open itens
or
Nautilus/ Edit /Preferences /etc...

No, it's there - provided you select to show it in the Main Menu :-) .

However, I probably have been better off stating, Places>Home which
would bring up the File Manager :-) .
