Unable to connect to libvirt qemu:///system.

Greetings here,

I have such error on running Virtual Machine Manager:

Unable to connect to libvirt qemu:///system.

Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/virtqemud-sock': No such file or directory

Libvirt URI is: qemu:///system

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/connection.py", line 923, in _do_open
    self._backend.open(cb, data)
  File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/connection.py", line 171, in open
    conn = libvirt.openAuth(self._open_uri,
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 147, in openAuth
    raise libvirtError('virConnectOpenAuth() failed')
libvirt.libvirtError: Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/virtqemud-sock': No such file or directory.

i found that topic: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=273174  but not solved.
when i ran this command:

journalctl -u libvirtd.service.

output is:

journalctl -u libvirtd.service
-- No entries --
.

usermod -aG libvirt <my username>.

any how to solve it?
