[SOLVED] ranger ranger.ext.img_display.ImgDisplayUnsupportedException

Hello everybody,

ranger stopped working when I start it as user but works if I start it as root

here is the output I get as user

ranger
ranger version: ranger 1.9.3
Python version: 3.8.3 (default, May 17 2020, 18:15:42) [GCC 10.1.0]
Locale: en_US.UTF-8

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/ranger/core/main.py", line 171, in main
    fm.initialize()
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/ranger/core/fm.py", line 104, in initialize
    set_image_displayer()
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/ranger/core/fm.py", line 103, in set_image_displayer
    self.image_displayer = get_image_displayer(self.settings.preview_images_method)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/ranger/ext/img_display.py", line 99, in get_image_displayer
    image_displayer_class = IMAGE_DISPLAYER_REGISTRY[registry_key]
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/ranger/ext/img_display.py", line 79, in fallback_image_displayer
    raise ImgDisplayUnsupportedException
ranger.ext.img_display.ImgDisplayUnsupportedException

Any suggestions are appreciated!

Thank you in advance!

Edit
Solved it by removing ~/.config/ranger
