I click on Nautilus then have to wait 1-2 mins for it to open… This just since last update (I did change the theme but I dont think this could affect…). I’m on an SSD so I dont see how its so slow. Any ideas?

Run nautilus in terminal and post the output?

Waiting eternally…

Ok actually it does open after some time, but these are the traces (I don’t have this GSConnect extension installed, I only have basic extensions)

Fixed by removing nautilus-typeahead and all its dependencies and reinstalling Files (nautilus). Thx for help Chrys.

That is very odd. By the way, the dependencies are identical for nautilus and nautilus-typeahead. The only difference is nautilus-typeahead contains a patch to enable the search as you type feature that was removed years ago.
