Gnome-control-center doesn't work after 44 upgrading

Hello Garuda users.

I'm in trouble with gnome settings after the upgrading to 44.
I'm currently on Gnome/Wayland. Same on Xorg.
I can't open anymore gnome-control-center from either cli or from gui: fun fact no stout and sterr were reported:

λ gnome-control-center -v

λ gnome-control-center -v 2| tee gnome.log


even system logs (dmesg and journalctl) don't report anything:

Any idea about how to start to solve this problem?

Greetings!

Same with new user?
Maybe clean .cache (.local)?
BTW, I never used GNOME.

Good idea, thanks!
New user works fine, but cleaning .cache and .local don't solve the problem, as much as turning off the extensions.

I also tried $ dconf reset -f /org/gnome/, but nothing seems to work...

I temporarily solved by downgrading the package gnome-control-center.
Waiting for a solution... or better days! : )
