Enable *Static Port* in Preferences and allow it through the firewall. See issue [#35](https://github.com/nozwock/packet/issues/35).\n\n#### \"Couldn't open files\"\n\nThis error occurs if the file is invalid (e.g. empty) or, on Flatpak, if you're sending files (via the Nautilus plugin) from a location Packet can't access.\n\nConsider granting \"All system files\" access via Flatseal to allow sending from any location. See [Downloads folder keeps resetting](#downloads-folder-keeps-resetting) for details.\n\n#### Downloads folder keeps resetting\n\nIn Flatpak, folder access is temporary and resets after a session restart because static access can't be requested. To set a permanent downloads folder, grant access in advance using Flatseal or run:\n\n```sh\nflatpak override --user io.github.nozwock.Packet --filesystem='/path/to/your/folder/here'\n```\n\n## Plugin Requirements\n\n\u003c!-- Don't change the heading since a link to it is being used in the app. --\u003e\n\nTo use the Nautilus plugin, install the required packages:\n\n- Ubuntu/Debian:\\\n`sudo apt install python3-dbus python3-nautilus`\n- Fedora:\\\n`sudo dnf install python3-dbus nautilus-python`\n- Arch:\\\n`sudo pacman -S python-dbus nautilus-python`\n- Fedora Silverblue (rpm-ostree):\\\n`rpm-ostree install python3-dbus nautilus-python`\n\n## Acknowledgments\n- [Dominik Baran][dominik] for creating the icon and working on the app's design.\n- [NearDrop][neardrop] for reverse-engineering the closed-source Quick Share implementation in Android's GMS.\n- [rquickshare] for their internal Rust implementation of the Quick Share protocol.\n\n## Code of Conduct\nPacket follows the [GNOME Code of Conduct][gnome-coc].\n\n[nightly-build]: https://nightly.link/nozwock/packet/workflows/ci/main?preview\n[translation-platform]: https://hosted.weblate.org/engage/packet/\n[translation-status-widget]: https://hosted.weblate.org/widget/packet/multi-auto.svg\n[dominik]: https://gitlab.gnome.org/wallaby\n[neardrop]: https://github.com/grishka/NearDrop/\n[rquickshare]: https://github.com/Martichou/rquickshare/\n[flathub]: https://flathub.org/apps/details/io.github.nozwock.Packet\n[flathub-installs-badge]: https://img.shields.io/badge/dynamic/json?label=Installs\u0026url=https%3A%2F%2Fflathub.org%2Fapi%2Fv2%2Fstats%2Fio.github.nozwock.Packet\u0026query=%24.installs_total\u0026logo=flathub\u0026color=007ec6\n[gnome-coc]: https://conduct.gnome.org/\n","funding_links":["https://github.com/sponsors/nozwock"],"categories":["Rust"],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fnozwock%2Fpacket","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fnozwock%2Fpacket","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fnozwock%2Fpacket/lists"}
