Obsidian Quick Look is not working. (Intel Macbook)

Steps to reproduce

  • Even after freshly installing version 1.14 and enabling the Obsidian extension, Quick Look still does not work. (Intel Macbook)
  • It works properly on my other Apple silicon MacBook.

Expected result

When I Quick Look a markdown file in Finder, I want it to show a rendered markdown preview.

Actual result

The preview shows up as plain text rather than in markdown preview
