[SOLVED] Gedit is not remembering last cursor position

In my previous installation, gedit defaulted to open my files at the last cursor position. I just re-installed ubuntu 20.04 and gedit opens my files at the top of the document.

I found a thread which explains how to disable the feature with the following steps:

Code:gconf-editor
apps
gedit-2
preferences
editor
cursor_position
restore_cursor_position = NoSo I thought I could change the restore_cursor_position to Yes to solve my problem.

Unfortunately, when I install the gconf-editor, there is no gedit-2 option in the apps section.

I've tried other editors, but they do the same thing.

How do I get gedit to open my files at the last cursor position by default?

Or, is there another editor which will do this?latest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=cykHBLvFXQg:9LzSA96HrKo:F7zBnMy latest?i=cykHBLvFXQg:9LzSA96HrKo:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=cykHBLvFXQg:9LzSA96HrKo:gIN9vFwcykHBLvFXQg
