 while thunar does the job it is still a bit hard to get used to it as a former nautilus user.. so i prefer to get nautilus with its nice bookmarks back. here's how it's done (copied from [[http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6807336&postcount=4|this post]]):  while thunar does the job it is still a bit hard to get used to it as a former nautilus user.. so i prefer to get nautilus with its nice bookmarks back. here's how it's done (copied from [[http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6807336&postcount=4|this post]]):

   - in ''/usr/share/applications/nautilus.desktop'' make shure that ''XFCE'' is mentioned in the list behind ''OnlyShowIn'' like so: ''OnlyShowIn=XFCE;GNOME;Unity;''   - in ''/usr/share/applications/nautilus.desktop'' make shure that ''XFCE'' is mentioned in the list behind ''OnlyShowIn'' like so: ''OnlyShowIn=XFCE;GNOME;Unity;''
 +  - run ''xfce4-settings-manager'' and go to default applications and set nautilus as your default file manager
 +  - edit ''/usr/share/applications/nautilus.desktop'' and ''bamf.index'' and change make shure all occurences of ''nautilus'' have a ''--no-desktop'' behind it
 +  - renamed ''/usr/bin/Thunar'' and created a new file called ''/usr/bin/Thunar'' with this content <code>#!/bin/bash 
 +nautilus --no-desktop</code> and of course <code>chmod 755 /usr/bin/Thunar</code> i now finally have thunar as default file browser but it doesn't seem to run smooth.. so be careful with this!
