:arrow: Hello everybody: (I' m Back ;)

After having started using another linux distro (linux mint xfce) searching for a faster PC response, I definitely come back to zorin, because I considered that having a 'new' computer, I can use my computer power with a more 'graphical' distro (althought it needs a more powerful cpu).

I can't install Zorin 8.1 (I dont't know why, but doing the installation from a live USB created with UnetBooting, the installation never finish) but I installed the 7.1 zorin version, and I'm happy with it now.

The ONLY THING I wanna 'improve' is:

How can I configure the mouse right click (predefined options 'New folder', 'paste', 'organize desktop by name', 'Keep aligned' , 'Change desktop backgroud') to include more in it (Specially, WebBrowser, Mail, File manager) so I can have a very fast access to the options I use more, and start them faster.


In Linux MInt XFCE, I have this option, and it's one of the most important for me, because I value speed over all. (if there is a software to achieve this option, please, tell me how to install it because I prefer a graphical interface to the command line. ;)

(I put this question in this forum a lot of time ago (viewtopic.php?f=5&t=5806 ) but now I can't do it with this zorin version (I forget how I did it )

Thanks a lot for your help, pp4mnklinux

:D

Thanks a lot for your answer, but It's really difficult for me. I installed nautilus, restart computer and I started this program. The options appears in grey colour so I can't modify them.

I'll continue trying but I think it's 'impossible' for me to configure this menu.

Thanks a lot :!:

Try running as 'root'. Open a terminal (Ctrl+ Alt+ T) and enter:

Code:
gksudo nautilus


Minimize to the panel and then try launching the app - alternatively:

Code:
sudo nautlus-actions-config-tool
