Ubuntu – open in terminal is not working after upgrading to 19.10

19.10gnome-terminalnautilus-extensions

My terminal always opens in home directory no matter where I open it. I also tried opening another terminal in the different directory but it's not working

gnome-terminal --working-directory=Downloads
gnome-terminal --working-directory Downloads
gnome-terminal --working-directory /home/avil/Downloads

I have also reinstalled both open in terminal extension and gnome-terminal but it's still not working

First launch terminal go to Edit -> Profile Preferences -> Command and uncheck the option saying Run a custom command instead of my shell. It will not working with Desktop, but if you're browsing the Desktop as a folder inside nautilus, it will works fine.

xterm is available by default on almost all Linux distributions if I remember correctly.

So you could run a command in it, depending on the shell that the script's written in with something like this, (the example is for a bash shell script)

xterm -e "sh script.sh"

It'll spawn a new shell window and execute your script.
