Now just to clarify, fully-updated Mint 20.3 XFCE as of January 2022 is using an older version of Thunar where this bug still exists. For reference, Thunar v4.16.10 included in the 2022-01-30 daily build of Xubuntu 22.04 LTS does not have this bug.michael-hi wrote: ⤴Sun Jan 30, 2022 5:39 pm It looks like it was this bug, now apparently fixed:

Also for reference, Thunar v4.16.8 as used by Mint XFCE 20.3 as well as Xubuntu 21.10 is where the bug in question occurs.
--------------------------------
On 20.3 XFCE (live or installed), if you open a location in Thunar, then open any other location in a new tab (whether a folder, a drive, etc) and then, in that newly-opened tab, double-click on any sub-folder and then click back once, you'll end up back at the very first location you opened in the window rather than the tab as if Thunar completely forgot about the location that the newly-opened tab started from (and clicking "forward" does not bring it back either)
As a specific example, open "Home" and then, from the left side-bar, open "File System" in a new tab. In that newly-opened tab, double-click on "etc" and then click the back button once - you'll instead end up back at "Home" and, if you then click the forward button once, you will end up back at "etc"
