when switching to nemo, did you remove the other file manager?

And then after removing the other filemanager/if not already removed, you can set up Nemo to handle the desktop completely with the following commands

xdg-mime default nemo.desktop inode/directory
application/x-gnome-saved-search

then

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons false

gsettings set org.nemo.desktop show-desktop-icons true

The first command disables the handling of desktop by Nautilus and the second one enables Nemo to take its place.

  • Thanks I did what you suggested, running nemo interminal shows no errrs running sudo nemo however shows : WARNING **: 09:49:15.255: Current gtk theme is not known to have nemo support (Yaru-bark-dark) - checking... ERROR SET META:15 Setting attribute metadata::nemo-list-view-sort-reversed not supported and as soon as I change the view ERROR SET META:15 Setting attribute metadata::nemo-default-view not supported ERROR SET META:15 Setting attribute metadata::nemo-icon-view-auto-layout not supported it seems whatever i do i get a warning, but I am more interested in solving the error issue. – amar Mar 29 '24 at 08:52
  • I used this before I posted the question: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1066752/how-to-set-nemo-as-the-default-file-manager-in-ubuntu/1446372#1446372. My nemo seems to be only in black and white, no colors in folders or anything, – amar Mar 29 '24 at 09:08
