I copied .txt files to my desktop folder (from NTFS external disk) and tried to open them but they were with right 777 (rwxrwxrwx) so press Enter (etc.) try to execute and not open the file with an editing program.
Then I rote a bug report (#1887514), understood my problem and changed the rights of the files.

But there is still a problem.

When I was trying to identify the problem, I tried "open with" on the right click menu. It worked (a window is opened and ask witch program I want to use). And after reporting the "bug" (that wasn't a bug) the option "open with" didn't opened anymore the window to choose a program. It opens directly as if I've selected "open".

It do the same to every new files I add to the desktop, and I already have rebooted my computer (it was some days ago).

I am not sure if the package I've selected is the right one for this problem, I don't know a lot about how Ubuntu is structured (and I don't know where I can find precise information).
