Comment 5 for bug 1787242

Just a note, I get the same results on two different laptops; ASUS G1Sn with single Nvidia GPU and a Dell Precision M4600 with Intel/Nvidia. It many be possible that new users coming from Windows to MATE Mint & MATE Ubuntu might be thing this is normal behaviour for a Linux distro when they see the file manager drop out or they might find it confusing to figure out why and how to report such an issue. I find it hard to believe we are the only individuals with this issue give that I've manage to repeat the problem so easily on these two computers with Mint, Ubuntu and Manjaro but not on Fedoria or Debian. You could be right about gvfs but most of my testing was with live boots without updating anything.
