Nautilus - The File Manager for GNOME Desktop

Nautilus is the official file manager and desktop shell for the GNOME desktop. Nautilus is a free software and is released under GNU Lesser General Public license. Nautilus is equivalent to Windows Explorer and provides all the facilities that you need to work with files, folders, and network file shares.

Each option opens Nautilus within a specific context. The Nautilus contexts associated with each menu option are:

Home Folder: Opens with a view of your home directory.

Desktop: Displays your desktop directory in your home directory.

Computer: Shows your computer disk drives

CD/DVD Creator: Opens a file manager window that you can drag files into and create a CD or DVD.

Network Servers: Browses network file shares. (Network file shares are folders that appear to be on your Ubuntu computer, but are really located on another machine and are accessible via a network.).

Connect to Server: Connect to a specific file share.

Recent Documents: Provides shortcuts to documents and files you've recently accessed.
