hey i installed that extention to my Nautilus in Ubuntu back far ago but now it started to open this link https://github.com/Lich-Corals/linux-file-converter-addon/releases with updates of your extention. How can i turn that thing off? I am no expert in linux and it's super complicated but annoying. Thx for the read

Thanks for the report. You can disable showPatchNotes in your config file. See the head of this page to see how to edit the file. More detailed instructions for the specific setting are here.

You can also try to run Nautilus in the terminal to see, if it spits any errors at startup. It could also explain the problem, if the popup appears at every start of Nautilus.

I hope this reply is helpful. Please close the issue if it is solved; if it's not, you can just continue the conversation here.

You can remove the 'nohup', it just tells the computer to not run the app in the terminal, so you don't have to leave it open for this Nautilus session. You can also just use your normal starter you normally use, the important command is the one with the '-q' in it. The error just tells you, that you don't have writing permission in the dictionary where you ran the command. But as long as you're able to run Nautilus normally, it shouldn't be a problem.

Is your original issue solved?

You need to configure it, because you installed the program in a location, where it doesn't have permission to update itself. To solve your problem, please run these commands in your terminal:

sudo mv /usr/share/nautilus-python/extensions/nautilus-fileconverter.py ~/.local/share/nautilus-python/extensions/nautilus-fileconverter.py
nautilus -q

These commands will move the script to a place where it is able to update itself and close nautilus. If you ran these commands, please start nautilus the normal way you always do it. It will probably show you the website one last time.

I hope this solution will solve your problem. Please close the issue if it did, otherwise, feel free to continue this conservation.
