No problem. Kind of trivial but nice to have quick access to. :-)

This is a simple Thunar custom action using Catfish but I find it eliminates a couple of clicks. If you are using Linux Lite 2.0 or lower you will need to install Catfish first.

The end result:




  • In Thunar click on Edit > Configure Custom Actions...
  • In the Basic tab enter the following information and select an icon for it

  • In the appearance selection tab, check only Directories

  • Now, when you're browsing your drives, you can right-click and find files starting from the location you're in.
