Re: Malformed URL trash

Do you mean it does nothing when you double click it? or you don't get context menu when you right click it? or something else?

Re: Malformed URL trash

You could try this (from your home directory) :-

cd .local/share/Trash/files/
rm *
cd ../info
rm *
cd ~

that should clear anything that is pending in the trash and should all be ok from there.

Re: Malformed URL trash

Okay thank you that worked. But now other shortcuts are not working. When I click on My Computer shortcut, I get an error saying:  Error KIOExec Malformed URL system:/

In the I right click on the files associations in control panel, but says Konqueror executable is not found.

Re: Malformed URL trash

Tried that.....nothing. I did find this though:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=996971

In the file associations link, Konqueror executable is missing. I might need to find the location of the Konqueror executable. I can't find it though.

Re: Malformed URL trash

Thank you. If I choose to open through Konqueror it says: TEDInit could not launch 'Konqueror'.:

Could not find 'Konqureror' executable.

This is getting annoying. I might have to reinstall Q4OS

Re: Malformed URL trash

If you do I suggest that you do the install, add any apps, do the kcmodules unblock,  then install system back. Have a look at the recent thread on Clonezilla. Before you make any more changes create a restore point so that you can recover to good known point  in time in a matter of minutes.

Re: Malformed URL trash

I'd say that's pretty good advice if you will be changing your system a lot, a couple of alternatives that I often do would be run anything you are testing either in a virtual-box or in a separate installation (I have three q40s installs on this pc main/lamp/test) and what I do with virtual-box is set-up a single installation with all updates and then export to ova so it can be re-installed in a couple of minutes when I need to.
One benefit of having multiple installations is being able to look on another partition/virtual-box to see where program/log files should be etc.

Re: Malformed URL trash

Thank You both for your help. I had backed up before I did a reinstall, and fifteen minutes later It like it never happened. I'll take a look at clonezilla. I should use virtualbox next time I want to change something.

Re: Malformed URL trash

Clonezilla might be a bit difficult, try Systemback first.
