I want to know is there any equivalent to Nautilus actions, or how to add/remove options from the right click menu.

There was this question, which suggest the use of Nautilus actions So i installed that. I try to open it but it does not open.

Did you find this Ubuntu Forums post yet? It isn't perfect but it may do what you want. Your question is reasonable but so few people want this, you may not get much help solving it. This is a problem regardless of OS. – Tom Brossman Apr 5 '12 at 11:22
@Matthew please read my answer :) – Someone Like You Apr 18 '12 at 21:50
@SomeoneLikeYou - This isn't the correct Stack Exchange site to ask questions about non-official Ubuntu distributions (see the FAQ). However, it would be on-topic at the Unix & Linux Stack Exchange. – fossfreedom♦ Apr 20 '12 at 19:39

I am answering my question because this is too long for a comment, and maybe others need to know the answer :)

Why i asked this question?

Because i have installed pycharm to try it, it adds an icon to your right click menu, the trial ended, i uninstalled it, and the icon did not go, i had to remove it.

How did i solve the problem?

first i did

cd  ~/.local/share/applications/ 
rm jetbrains-pycharm.desktop

then

locate pycharm

the output is 

/home/mint/.gnome/apps/jetbrains-pycharm.desktop
/usr/share/applications/jetbrains-pycharm.desktop

i deleted jetbrains-pycharm.desktop from these locations. then i did sudo updatedb

As for this link, i just installed Nautilus-Actions but when i do nautilus-actions-config-tool i see this error Segmentation fault

Does this is for Ubuntu 11.10+? – Ravi Apr 19 '12 at 7:26
@Ravi I am on mint 12, but it works on every debian based os, the idea is to locate the files and delete them and updatedb, nothing so special about it – Someone Like You Apr 19 '12 at 9:44
@SomeoneLikeYou Oh! Thanks...... You use ubuntu? – Ravi Apr 19 '12 at 13:46
@ravi no but who told me the solution uses ubuntu... personally, I use linux mint 12 – Someone Like You Apr 19 '12 at 17:23

no wonder nothing worked, you do know that the folders are diffrent in mint, and the link for nautilus-actions is specifically for Ubuntu. – mateo_salta Apr 20 '12 at 19:27
