Dock missing and unable to move windows after update

I’m using X11
I ran garuda update today, and suddenly my bottom dock disappeared. Also noticed I can’t interact with the windows in any way, so no alt+tab and not even alt+f4.
I can access most right-click menus, but I have not had much luck in any attempt to fix anything.

I tried going into edit mode, but it doesn’t allow me to create new docks or any other option.

I tried to run the reinstall all packages fro garuda, but I get a /share/man error, so no luck there either.

I’m not too sure where to look for the broken package on this install. Was unlucky that somehow I don’t have a BTRFS from before the upgrade, since the saved goes up to 10 only.

Normal reboot helps, if not, use last working snapshot.

I did a fair few reboots already, and also said I have no working snapshot.

The snaps from grub fail because of some change-root issue. I can look at the exact error name if it helps

I know, I write it for all new users.

If one or more apps are broken after the last update, how it will be fixed with reinstall all apps again?

You just install the problem again.


So, first thing is, reboot.
Second, use last snapshot.
Third, start help request before you break your system with testing something if you are not 100% familiar with the subject.

Try to restore the dock with garuda-assistant.

Again, I have tried to load snaps, but every time I get the same error leaving me unable to boot.

Also how would I restore it with garuda assistant? I tried some of the options there, but is there something specific I should do? I did attempt the reset all configs from the updater window already and nothing.
