Quick Look not working properly on Ventura (13.3)

Hello all,

I've just noticed that Quick Look is not working on macOS Ventura (13.3).

After restarting the Mac, I realized that the problem happens when I quick look gif files. If I'm quick looking file formats like png, it's all good, but, as soon as I preview with quick look a gif file, Quick Look doesn't work anymore.

Restarting Finder allows me to continue previewing files with Quick Look, but opening another gif file causes the problem again.

Anyone else having the same issue?

Thanks!

this was sorted w/ the latest point update—

The current stable release of Ventura including bug fixes, security updates is macOS Ventura 13.3.1

KasamaDY - I get the same thing, but with .m4a (Audio - MPEG AAC) files.

If I change the extension (and therefore reduce the access of metadata of the podcast file) to an .mp4 - Quick Look works as expected. It's just .m4a audio files will not preview - spinning gear "loading" and never resolves to preview the file.

FWIW, it's not the same thing. I replied to your post.
