"Add files" greyed out, can't add anything

Worked fine in xarchiver & I don't anticipate the files are the problem. Unless it's supposed to run as root or something, and not getting called properly, but I'm running from the system menu...

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

Morning Seb, will do when I get some time this week. Cheers.
