I'm posting in this forum because the problem exists within Opera, all I said was that it had existing in Firefox and I was able to correct it in Firefox but I cannot correct it in OPERA!

I should have added more information.
This problem is experienced with three different browsers, Firefox, Chromium and Opera. I was able to correct it in Firefox. Firefox has an option that allows changing the actions of a variety of downloaded file types. I haven't found any similar functionality in Opera or Chromium.

I created this problem when using one of the three browsers, I think it was Firefox. I had downloaded a video file, the downloaded file was shown at the bottom left of the browser screen. When I right clicked the file I was presented with what options I wanted to have happen, I chose to have VLC open this type of file. I thought the action would be exclusive to a FLV file, however VLC now executes on any file file downloaded through the browser.

It is Nemo. This problem is experienced with three different browsers, Firefox, Chromium and Opera. I was able to correct it in Firefox. Firefox has an option that allows changing the actions of a variety of downloaded file types. I haven't found any similar functionality in Opera or Chromium.

Linux Mint 7.3 Cinnamon

When the folder icon is clicked, there is a brief flash on the screen, it is as if a Pop-Up page was blocked, rather than opening the actual file location. Is there some way I can correct this?
