updated my macOS and my Krita to the newest versions and my krita files no longer have a preview of my art its just a plain white paper icon. I tried restarting my MacBook but it didn’t help

It’s because of the macOS update, Krita needs to update the way it generates the thumbnails. See bug [493474 – Thumbnail and QuickLook previews not displaying on macOS 15 Sequoia](https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=493474) / this thread: [Icon thumbnails not displaying on Mac desktop](https://krita-artists.org/t/icon-thumbnails-not-displaying-on-mac-desktop/102375)
