Bug Description

Error : Desktop configuration files are not launching from nautilus but its working from desktop.
Occured Error while : made a shortcut and tried to open from nautilus
{
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Install Niram
Exec=/usr/share/niram/NiramStock/install.sh
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true
Comment=Install Stock Niram Theme
Path=/usr/share
Icon=/home/newtron/Documents/NiramStock/20190107_201717.png
}
but it's opening in text editor. Also ubuntu's default examples have this error and showing it as a normal text file.

What I've expected : On older versions of nautilus and all versions of nemo it directly opens .desktop files from file manager.

Now I've modified this bug report and hopefully waiting for an answer.

Tanks

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately, we cannot work on this bug because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem.

We have instructions on debugging some types of problems at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures.

At a minimum, we need:
1. The specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem.
2. The behavior you expected.
3. The behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).
Thanks!
