How to add the missing Extract option to the KDE right click context menu.
Looking at a recent Debian installation with KDE the right click on a zip file didn’t show the extract here option
The above image shows the pop-up context menu when right clicking on the zip file.
As can be seen in the above image there is no option to extract the contents of the zip file.
I chose to install the packages zip and unzip
apt-get install zip unzip
But there was no change in the context menu
With the addition of the ark archive utility package
apt-get install ark
The context sensitive right click option to uncompress a zip file was then shown
As can be seen in the image above, following the addition of ark, the right click context menu now shows the Extract option.
