Test sequence:

2. Open a favourite folder.
3. Press Backspace
4. Press Enter when the cursor is on .. (top of the file list)

Can not reproduce this.
Backspace or Enter on the .. entry always goes up to the parent folder.

This issue is present for more than an year, but I have not reported it because it is sporadic.
It happens only after opening a path from the favourites.
Yesterday it happened much more frequently, today I tried to reproduce it - it happens only with one of my favourite folders which is stored in google drive. But with this folder, the issue is reproduced evytime.
