It has literally been five minutes between the two posts, don't do this.

Which guide did you follow to install "Arch 2020"?

As for what I can parse from your question you need to install the optional dependencies of xarchiver for the archive formats you intend to extract, see

pacman -Qi xarchiver

Mod note: Moving to NC

try using file-roller

also do install zip and unzip for zip operations, every gui archiver application will require these cli programs to provide the backend. :-)
