Why won't gedit file browser plugin show files?

I was not able to Google correct answer. I did another tries and this one solved my problem:

  1. Right click in the gedit filebrowser pane
  2. Hover mouse over "Filter" option in the pop-up menu
  3. Check "Show Binary" option

This helped on my computer with gedit + Windows Vista. The "Show Binary" option affected all files, not only the binary files. The text files were also affected.

Hope this will help.

PS: I give no warranty at all.
