Which version were you running before this broken one? If it was a test version, do you remember approximately when you downloaded it?

[Climbatiz]

it was a fresh install, sometime yesterday (2nd Dec)

You could try older installer artifacts from previous packaging runs (available at https://github.com/nicotine-plus/nicotine-plus/actions/workflows/packaging.yml) in order to try to narrow down the oldest build which still worked properly, and thereby narrowing down what it is that might cause the issue. Otherwise there is not enough information to confirm nor investigate if a bug exists.
