your system is too messed up, so use this:

pacman -Qqn | pacman --overwrite=* -S -

hopefully the desc issue above will not cause problems

exit chroot:
exit
make sure you are connected to internet, open terminal, chroot again:
manjaro-chroot -a
refresh mirrors:

pacman-mirrors --fasttrack 5 && pacman -Syyu

then:

pacman -Qqn | pacman --overwrite=* -S -

It works perfectly. Thank you so much

post output from:
sudo ldconfig
it should return nothing…

and also try to reinstall some small package, to see if the desc issue from above was resolved too:
sudo pacman -S ark
and post output from it

I noticed that my laptop speaker isn’t functioning again and also the microphone . This was before the OS crash though. Nothing is wrong with the speaker. I don’t really know what caused it, Can you help me with that?

20

I should insert the flashdrive again and do this right?

21

no, you do it back from your system, no need to boot into live usb…
and for audio, try with different kernel, if you are running 5.15 try with the 6.1, and the 6.2…
