Recently I upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04 and I don't see open with in the nautilus context menu on the folders. It used to be in 12.04 and I used it for playing music in folders using VLC. How do I get it back in 14.04?

  • Is it in the traditional menus that they patched back in in 14.04? Tap `ALT` and then type in `open with` to see if it is there easily... I know you were asking about how to get it back into the context menu in 14.04 but they might've removed it...in which case you could attempt to install the old version of Nautilus with http://packages.ubuntu.com/ (although it probably won't work)... – Ads20000 Apr 22 '14 at 12:27
  • None of these options work. – Praveen Sripati Apr 22 '14 at 12:41
  • What do you mean that you 'used it for playing music in music files' anyway? – Ads20000 Apr 22 '14 at 12:43

This option was removed, evidently 12.04 was the last version to have this option. There is a bug still open here:
