Please open nautilus

Nautilus come in front of you:
- select a file you want change default open application
- right click with mouse a drop down menu come in front of you
- go to the "Open with.." and select the desired, already listed, applications or select the bottom line "Open with other application" and select one from the list.

To open Nautilus you can click on the Places → Home folder menu...

Hope this helps

Thank you, I did change the permissions by mistake. I've got it all working properly now.
The King of Kings is coming! Are you ready?
