On 14.0.9, under Default Applications, when you click on File Manager, there's a note that says you have to change the preferred application for mime type inode/directory. Try that, it should work. Maybe there's something different about LXDE; I usually install TDE after XFCE, and it always works correctly. -- PGP key: http://homestead-products.com/pubkey.htm

I edited that file.... Logged off and logged back in and IT REPOPULATED ITSELF :( I even #'s the lines and it still reverted back. There's got to be a way to delete those folders! There's no way I could nuke and pave and install a minimal XFCE session due to I use the MINI ISO with Non Free codecs and drivers. Plus, I am stuck on a sat dish connection and downloading ISO's eats A LOT of data. Chris

I nuked Gnome keyring via synaptic and everything looks okay now. I am not getting asked for a keyring password when logging into Nextcloud. The only problem with nuking gnome keyring is that, when I open NextCloud, I have to sign in everytime via a pop up of their website and validate myself with credentials before NC will connect to my server. I guess that was the whole point of the Gnome Keyring was to be the middle man to where I wouldn't have to do that? I guess? I really don't understand keyrings yet. All is good now I guess... Thanks, Chris

Hello Chris, Am Donnerstag, 20. Januar 2022 schrieb c. marlow: If you don't want the system to create or change the XDG directories then you can create a file ~/.config/user-dirs.conf with enable=0 I haven't tested that. I don't know if your user-dirs.dirs file is recreated because you *deleted* some lines instead of setting an alternative location, neither the man page for user-dirs.dirs nor xdg-user-dirs-update is clear about it, at least not for my German brain. Otherwise, as Slàvek and Mike have pointed out you can edit the file ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs and set the directories you want. If you don't want a directory to be created, then set it to an already existing path like "$HOME". You can edit that file in TDE Control Center like Slàvek said. If nothing works out, read the man page(s)! ;-) $ man user-dirs.conf $ man user-dirs.dirs $ man xdg-user-dirs-update (In this case, though, they didn't help me understand completely how this XDG users dirs thing works.) HTH Kind regards, Stefan

As someone pointed out you could set these to point to a single directory Bugs are handled in https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/explore/repos so either you or someone else should log it there, otherwise it will not be looked into Also I am not completely sure that you should remove xdg-user-dirs if you use the PC as a desktop. I would keep it because some applications relay on this (TDE not that much)

At least you need to change the config file mentioned in my other mails, too. That's possible with a TDE Control Center (TCC) module or with a simple file editor. Both should work to tell your system not to recreate the folders.<< Opened /home and clicked on the folder that I wanted to delete, and then hit the delete key and the folders were automatically repopulated. ( they instantly came right back ) directories which you don't want to be created are defined as "$HOME" as has been suggested to you? TDE does respect that (on my system).<< Yes, I tried editing the user-dirs.dirs config file using both sudo nano and just nano ( as brought up a couple emails back with screenshots) and as soon as I logged out and logged back in, the file defaulted back to how it was before I saved it. meaning, all of the lines that I deleted were re written inside of the file. with your system or configuration.<< I am starting to wonder if I need to do the Dan Younquist method and nuke and pave AGAIN and do a MINIMAL XFCE install, and then install TDE again? Or do you think that i'm okay? I installed TDE by first running the Debian 11 mini iso installed LXQT then installed TDE and then purged LXQT from the system once I got into TDE using sudo apt-get purge lxqt* Thinking that LXQT was the problem. Thanks, Chris

Intesting under Konq.... When deleting documents, music, templates etc They come right back.. It's like you can't delete them.. Why? I don't have a use for them! Chris
