Bug Description

Right click on a zip file does not offer 'open with archive manager'
Also if file-roller is installed by right-click on a .zip file in the drop-down menu i don’t see the option ‘Open with archive manager’ as i had in Ubuntu 22.04 as 1st option. So I must select ‘Open with’ and search for an app … and if I don’t know file-roller==archive-manager I’m lost.

Confirmed, you can select it in 'open with' but it's not listed as default (but it is for other formats like xz)
