Naultilus error in Truecrypt, not available

Error message using truecrypt in mint mate

When double clicking to open a volume from the Truycrypt gui, it calls nautilus.  Nautilus may not be installed on your system or having it running alongside caja is yuck.  There is no easy way to configure which file manager to be used in the preferences.

Since caja and nautilus have similar command line arguments a simple symbolic link is possible

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/caja /usr/bin/nautilus

Linux Mate Mint, Firefox Open Download Folder launches Nautilus

Where:  Firefox in Linux Mint Mate
Problem:  Nautilus is invloked instead of Caja
How:  Right clicking a downloaded file from the downloads dialog and selecting 'Open Containing Folder' Triggers it.

Solution:  in mate menu look for preferred application under preferences menu

If the drop down box is blank, reselect mate file manager.




These solutions below did not work or might of helped?  Source

in about:config
create two bolean strings and set both to TRUE
network.protocol-handler.expose.file
network.protocol-handler.external.file

Create a string and add 'caja' to this
network.protocol-handler.app.file

~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list
add line
inode/directory=caja-folder-handler.desktop;
