sudo pacman -Rssuncc garuda-nvidia-config nvidia-dkms nvidia-utils nvidia-settings lib32-nvidia-utils

Carefully check which packages the command above will delete before hitting "y", if it will delete non-Nvidia packages don't proceed.

Try this one:

sudo pacman -Rssun egl-wayland eglexternalplatform gwe lib32-opencl-nvidia libxnvctrl garuda-nvidia-config nvidia-utils lib32-nvidia-utils nvidia-dkms nvidia-settings

The python deps probably come from gwe. You can go ahead. After uninstalling Nvidia deps, reinstall this package and then reboot

sudo pacman -S libdbusmenu-gtk3
