Bug Description

GNOME Shell 44.1, GNOME nautilus 44.0, Ubuntu 23.04

In "list view" is impossible to select/unselect more than one file with Ctrl + LMB combination.

There is also bug with paste and delete files. When deleting a file it still continues to be shown in the file list, need to press F5 to refresh the list. When pasting file to another location it looks weird - it shows blank icon without name, need to press F5 to refresh the list. This bug exists in list view and also others view options.

Thank you for your bug report, it seems similar to bug #2023500 and might be fixed proposed gtk SRU mentioned there

I have the same problem and, based on the bug report above, I assume that many others have this problem. I know there is a workaround, but it seems inexcusable to me that Ubuntu does not push a fix through Software Updater. I detest Windows, but Microsoft would fix this issue universally and not expect the end-user to have to search for and install an obscure patch.
