The assumption, I believe, is that the target folder is under /media/, while the initial prompt is "~/". Starting with a slash causes the initial prompt to be "greyed out" (i.e. rendered ineffectual unless the user backspaces). > And I'm unable to reproduce the behaviour you're describing in older > Emacs versions -- I tried this in Emacs 25.1, and `C-x C-f /med TAB' > just gives me "No match", even if ~/media exists. As Richard explained in , some GNU/Linux distros mount external media under /media/$USER, so typing /med TAB greys out the initial ~/ and used to complete to /media/$USER (if $USER is the only folder under /media). Now users need to type an additional slash to disambiguate from "/media:".
