Summary0005279: File type for text files are showing "Python File (no console) (text/plain)" in GNOME GUI.
Description

When we right click any text file (eg:-imp.txt) icon and click on the properties, the file type is showing "Python File (no console) (text/plain)" instead of "plain text document(text/plain)". All text files in the system have this problem. After editing this text file, some icons in the desktop is disappearing. Also there is login loop problem in other ttys. Whether my computer is hacked or infected with any malware, rootkits. My Desktop running same OS version and with same updates do not have this problem. I uninstalled gnome and reinstalled it but the problem is there. I have also upgraded the OS. But the problem is there.
