If you do Ctrl + H more than two times. Gnome will crash and close the session.
The same happen if you use the GUI - menu dialogue Show Hidden Files.

Thank you for your bug report, could you add your 'journalctl -b 0' log to the bug? Does it happen in any nautilus location?

Hi Sebastien:

Thanks for the reply. Attached is the output.
It happens on any location.

Do you use a wayland session? It's sounding similar to bug #1898005

[Gabi (gabrielbarrionuevo0)]

Hi Sebastien;

Yes, indeed I'm using wayland. I will log back in with X and see if the bug persist.

Hi Sebastien;

The same happens. Actually it does not log you out. But Gnome crashes and reload the session.

Here is the log from

journalctl _UID=1000
