Bug description

Quite a simple to fix bug, basically if you open any compressed file, than using the archive manager you can extract anything from it, however, if you keep the archive manager open, and than more the .tar.gz, than extracting does not work, and nothing happens.

The argument that its because the file path changed is probably correct, but if so I'm sure their could be a way for it to at least notify me if the file had changed and if i want to exit, or go to a new path, or subjectively, better yet you can just auto configure it

Steps to reproduce

Make a ~/Desktop/compressed.tar.gz file in ~/Desktop make a folder: ~/Desktop/temp open the ~/Desktop/compressed.tar.gz file in ~/Desktop and extract any file to ~/Desktop/temp it will work! now do not close the archive manager move the ~/Desktop/compressed.tar.gz to ~/Desktop/temp/compressed.tar.gz and try and extract any file anywhere from the archive manager that you didn't close it will NOT work nor will it give you a menu that the file was missing

Expected behavior

it should at least give a error menu saying file not found, better yet it should have a option saying open new file path (assuming its moved and not deleted), or subjectively perhaps auto configuring it without asking the user would be better, but the argument that the user would be unaware also has merit

I think this would be an issue for Gnome archive manager (file-roller) rather than Mint.

Expect problems if you do in-flight moves of open files.
