nautilus crashed with SIGSEGV in g_type_check_instance_cast()

[Abdulrahman Amri]

After an OS update a few hours ago, nautilus stopped working. It crashes on startup and when I run the command "sudo nautilus" I get the response "Segmentation fault"

I am unable to open the file browser GUI.

I tried reinstalling and restarting a couple of times, it did not work.
