Samba Installed but no Fileshare menu

Ubuntu Support Template

Ubuntu Version:
Example: 24.04 LTS

Desktop Environment (if applicable):
GNOME

Problem Description:
Please see the screenshot. With Samba installed, I have no option, when I right click a folder to share it. What could I be missing? I’ve looked but am unable to find anything on this particular issue. All of the docs say of Samba is installed, you’re good to go.

Thanks in advance.

Do you have nautilus-share package installed?

If not, install it:

sudo apt install nautilus-share

Restart nautilus:

nautilus -q

And see if it helped.
