Good day, The file will open if you remove the file extension and have it marked executable. This behavior is probably by design. If someone accidentally marks a file such as a .png as executable they still expect it to open in an image viewer, not try to run and give an error. The file manager does not differentiate.
If you feel this is in error, please feel free to reopen the bug. Thanks! ** Package changed: ubuntu => nautilus (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- "There is no application installed for this file type" error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292324 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
