Ever since I installed Xubuntu 16.04.2 I have this weird bug, whenever I try to create an archive from the right-click menu in Thunar I get the following error message:"Failed to create archive. No suitable archive manager found.". When I use the Extract Here option, it works fine, file-roller launches and extracts the archive without a hitch. It seems like file-roller is not linked to the Create Archive in the right click menu of Thunar. I googled my problem and found some old forum posts with some workarounds but none of them seem to work anymore, at least for me. I tried: thunar-archive-plugin not working https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=31871 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=215241 Does anyone know how to re-associate file-roller to the Create Archive right click menu launcher? Or how I can just simply fix it?

No, since I have the correct named symlink (org.gnome.FileRoller.desktop) in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/thunar-archive-plugin/ .
I've meant .tap
There seems to have been a permission issue after the upgrade to 16.04.2 . Proper permission have been set and now everything works like a charm.
