EMFILE: Too many open files

Things I have tried

To be honest - I have been having the same issue on and off for the last three updates:
Currently on Kubuntu 22.04 on Appimage with a Folder size of 82.2Mb, 1184 files and 114 subfolders. I also tried fresh snap install with the same errors.

I also checked the:

cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max
