I am using Ubuntu 16.04. I am not really used to Linux. When I started Ubuntu today, there was a message of internal error that caused Nautilus to not launch.

When I use terminal sudo nautilus, 

(nautilus:2694): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to register client: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.gnome.SessionManager was not provided by any .service files
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Also, the desktop does not respond to the right mouse button click.

I even do not know how to get more information on the source of error. I tried to remove nautilus and reinstall

sudo apt-get remove --purge nautilus

sudo apt-get install nautilus

It does not solve the problem.
How can I fix this problem?

  • Please post more information. Try running Nautilus from the terminal. Posting screenshots of the problem would also be helpful.

  • Out of curiosity, are you trying to run Nautilus as root?

  • If I type 'nautilus', it only gives 'Segmentation fault' with no additional information. Thus I tried 'sudo nautilus' and got some more message.
