I'm currently running Xubuntu 20.04.
Thunar 1.8.14
As far as I can tell I'm doing everything right and yet I can not get "Open as Root" to appear in the right click menu. Any Ideas?
I followed the Instructions here:
https://www.ezeelinux.com/talk/showthread.php?tid=128
and here
https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/thunar/custom-actions
I went to Edit --> Custom Actions --> Add
Name: Open as Root
Description: Opens current folder with root permissions.
Command: pkexec thunar %f
Then I added an Icon. Then I tried another Icon. Then I tried to add sudo to the command. Then I even tried logging out and back in, and finally a full reboot.
