Go to the main menu (hat) and then choose the system tools menu. From
the system tools menu, select the Configuration editor.
From the "Configurqtion editor", open up the apps folder. Scroll down
to the nautilus folder and open this folder. Select the preferences
folder for nautilus.
Go to the right panel and check the little box for always use browse.
Now you can close the editor and all future openings of the file manager
should be better and more usable, with less distraction from popup
express (linux version).
You could also right click on the icon for your home folder, then choose
the browse choice. This way works also.
