penny-farthing I'have unistalled Nautilus and Nemo work in the right way also with copy to and move to.
I believe that you jump from Nautilus to Nemo without realizing it.

      penny-farthing Installing Nautilus is fine. If the operation you're doing involves a file picker, then that's a part of GTK itself, not any file manager. The file picker is in GTK.

          EbonJaeger hey Ebon---your instructions worked on a fresh budgie install. no more nautilus!

          I recommend all Budgie new installs to do this and read the whole thread for the nemo add-ons. nautilus was problematic when I used it immediately after install. some mediocre things never change (nautilus) but thanks to you I changed it. in fedora budgie nemo is the default. that will probably happen in the next .iso...

          ...but I could not wait🙂

            I'm on Gnome and I've given up on Nautilus. I installed nemo and removed nautilus as part of my new install. So far so good.

              kizilyildiz I'm not sure what you mean. The icons in those screenshots look the same to me; they should be using whatever you have your icon theme set to.

                riffer I installed nemo and removed nautilus as part of my new install.

                Speaking of changing to Nemo: Why is Nemo placed in the Accessories sub-menu (after a reboot) on Budgie? Why not System Tools, or if not that, Utilities? To me, it seems like it's definitely a system tool.

                    WetGeek Because the category that it has in the desktop file is Utility, which the spec describes as "Accessories," which is the name that Budgie uses. Just yesterday I actually made this PR changing some of the category sorting, in which the current Utilities category will no longer exist because it's A) ambiguous with Accessories and B) doesn't include a desktop category that one would expect (X-GNOME-Utilities).

                      EbonJaeger In the next edition of Solus, this will become the default for new installations of Solus Budgie, and these steps will not be necessary.
                      Hello, I just wanted to give a small feedback, that this is not standard as of now. Just in case you switched to nemo in the current ISO and something is not yet working as it should. I did a fresh install yesterday and nemo-desktop wasnt set as default yet.
