Error on both rightclick options of nautilus extract to and extract here

Question

opening rar file with archive manager works without problem, also they work in nemo, is there a fix for those in nautilus?

Answer 1

Even in 24.04 the answer from nautilus was the same.

The solution was to use nemo (I did not need to install nemo-fileroller in 24.04) , to install it: sudo apt install nemo Then used the info from this https://itsfoss.com/install-nemo-file-manager-ubuntu/.

Run:

1. xdg-mime default nemo.desktop inode/directory application/x-gnome-saved-search
2. gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background show-desktop-icons false
3. gsettings set org.nemo.desktop show-desktop-icons true

Finally from this https://askubuntu.com/a/1446372/327339 installed dconf-editor with sudo apt install dconf-editor and used it, the instruction is: "Open the dconf-editor tool, and navigate to org --> gnome--> shell --> extensions --> ding.Turn on the "use-nemo" option at the bottom in order to "Use Nemo to open folders".

I removed nautilus from panel and added nemos icon instead, Nautilus is still installed since it is needed by gnome but I do not use it any more and I do not have any need to have home directory or any directory on my desktop.

also some changes were needed in nemo which is described here How do I use nemo's file extract actions to extract to a specific folder?, if you take a closer look you will see that rar;r00;r01; is added. That way you may click on .rar or .r00 or .r01 to extract.
