How do I set Nautilus to use same window on double click?

  • 772

How do I set Nautilus to use same window on double click when browsing folders? This would be similar to how windows works. Right now, my Nautilus opens a new window of nautilus if i double click a folder. To use the same window I have to remember to nicely click the little arrow icon to expand the folder.

So, is the default behavior changeable?

nautilus directory filemanager
