Problem viewing Image thumbnails on my Manjaro

Support GNOME

Hello, I recently installed Manjaro and I’m having a small bug with it. The thumbnails don’t appear in the file manager, leaving a black frame. In the settings menu, both in preferences and in the section to change the user image, they don’t appear either.
Here are my system settings:

Hello @ferhelloween and welcome :wink:

Try adding GSK_RENDERER=opengl to the /etc/environment, remove the thumbnails and relogin, or reboot your system.

echo "GSK_RENDERER=opengl" | sudo tee -a /etc/environment;
rm -Rf ~/.cache/thumbnails/*
