There is a very annoying problem with archive extraction on Linux. I always sort my files by “last modified” and want my latest files and folders on top in any file manager. When I download and extract an archive, the extracted folder is placed toward the middle or bottom of the list apparently because the original timestamps of files are retained. If I’m not mistaken I didn’t have this issue on my MacBook and the extracted archives would appear on the top of the list.
Workaround: In Ark if I choose extract to subfolder and type a name for the new folder, it is treated as recently modified and is placed at the top. But I don’t want to enter a name every time.
Shouldn’t an extracted folder be treated as recently modified??
Any ideas?
