The error message is coming from libarchive. unrar is not being use by file-roller in preference to libarchive for some reason.
I think there is something wrong with the right click "extract here" functionality in Nautilus/Files. If i manually open a rar in Archive Manager/File-Roller (what's up with the weird Gnome double naming convention?) and extract it that way then it does work.

Strange Pacman isn't offering anything new.
]]>I would like to add unrar support in Gnome-files but i'm running out of ideas and i'm probably overseeing something really simple over here. What i'm working with:
GNOME 40.1
Files 40.1
File-roller 3.40.0
Unrar 6.01
