[Bug 🐞]: Unexpected end of JSON input on startup

Unexpected end of JSON input on startup 🐞

Describe the bug
When attempting to launch the app, I get a JavaScript error and the process terminates.

Reproduction Steps
Just starting the app is enough to cause the crash, there is nothing I can do to prevent it.

Expected Behavior
I would like it if the app started as it did just a few days ago and I suspect starting up correctly would be the desired behaviour 😀

Technical Info (please complete the following information)

• OS: Arch Linux (full update just a few moments ago)
• Kuro Version: 8.1.0

Additional context
I have tried to reinstall kuro and to delete the configuration files under ~/.config, both did nothing to help the problem. Whether I start from Gnome or directly through the terminal does not matter, the following error message is displayed:

SyntaxError: Unexpected end of JSON input

Hello @leonbohn , do you have any custom shortcuts enabled ?

EDIT:
Please download Kuro's latest version and let me know if the issue persists 💪

If it does, deleting your ~/.config/Kuro folder may help. Please give it a try and report your findings
