Hi,

I see that in the report for you local installation you are missing the index.html file inside the PowerToys installation folder.

This might be caused by some older files not being uninstalled correctly.
Would you mind:
1 - Uninstall PowerToys.
2 - See if the PowerToys install directory (default: C:\Program Files\PowerToys) is still there. If it is, delete it manually.
3 - Install PowerToys.

Please let us know if this works for you.

For me the SVG Icon Previews don't work when the files are in OneDrive folder but when locally stored they work.

Actually ref #17493

#17467 seems like it's about not finding a dll

That worked, thanks!
#17493 is the same bug, but #17467 contains a different error message.
@CodeLake this might be because files have to be present on the device itself and not only in cloud.
Thanks a lot everyone for helping me!
