[xubuntu-users] Two file managers at the same time?

This is a known issue. It is caused by saving a session with thunar open. What you need to do is run the process manager, and kill the instance of thunar, log out with save session. When you log back in, it should only open one instance of thunar. Make sure you either stop saving sessions or kill all running thunar instances before logging out again

  Perhaps a message on thunar-dev (http://foo-projects.org/mailman/listinfo/thunar-dev) might help?

    Holy crap, when I ran it with the terminal (just by typing in "thunar"),
    two of them came up just like usual.

    I've made sure to update everything to the latest, but there is no luck
    there either. 

    This is... odd. It comes in handy when I need to switch stuff to my USB
    drive from my hard drive and vice versa, but I barely ever do that, so two
    at once can get pretty annoying...
