Why there is no "Sharing Options" on cinnamon on Ubuntu 12.04?

I've installed latest Cinnamon on Ubuntu 12.04, everything is perfect, except sharing files and folders. When I'm trying to share any files/folders by right-clicking the files/folders, surprisingly there is no "sharing options" field on the menu. Why it's not there? How can get that option back?

Solution 1:

The "Sharing Options" option in the context menu in Cinnamon is provided by nautilus-share.

So, first check if you have installed this package with next command in terminal:

whereis nautilus-share

If you don't have it installed, you can install it with:

sudo apt-get install nautilus-share

If your default file browser is not Nautilus and is Nemo, use next commands instead:

whereis nemo-share                  #to check if is installed
sudo apt-get install nemo-share     #to install

Solution 2:

Cinnamon use Nemo as file manager and it use nemo-share package for sharing files/folders. To isntall that I issued the following command:

sudo apt-get install nemo-share

Then restart your PC and see the problem is solved.
