This problem usually arises when you have two Nautilus windows open, and one is already in "location" mode, i.e. the address bar shows the text of the path, call it window #2. If you minimize this window #2, activate window #1, and hit "Ctrl+L", nothing happens. The worst part is that even if you close the window #2, where you had it working, it will still not work for window #1. If you then open window #3 and minimize it, hit "Ctrl+L" in window #1, it will be applied to window #3 (!).
It is obviously a usability bug that has to do with incorrect code design for handling "Ctrl+L" in multiple windows. This problem affects all versions of Ubuntu using nautilus up to and including 15.10, and will probably continue to affect 16.04 until something is done about it. @Vindicator, if what I described above is not what you are experiencing, please let me know and I'll try to file a separate bug report. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1462183 Title: Nautilus "Enter Location" Stops Working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1462183/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
