Local File -> Open
menu item from the menu
bar. Open
from the context menu Ctrl + Shift + O
(Command + Shift + O

If the selected object is a directory, the working directory will be changed to the selected directory and its contents are displayed in the directory list table.
Opening
files using the associated applications may not work on some operating systems,
in which case, you will see an error message.
