Comment 109 for bug 260492

Hi, I have 10.04 installed for a couple of months now. Recently when I open folders in places menu it open a file in VLC.
in usr/local/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache is the only file, no file called mimeapps.list. also if I open places then right click on folder like Home Folder it open up VLC right away. (is there a folder called Nautilus somewhere??? where do you go to make a file open with Nautilus and toggle remember this) My computer abilities are copy and paste. Help much appreciated.
