Thank for this, I have just got the issue with "Gnome 3 Tweaks screen does not open". The error is shown when running gnome-tweaks from the terminal. This fix it.

@nivhty you are welcome! yes, that is a common error unfortunately. Happy to see that this FIX is still working since sometimes with you new versions coming up there are breaking changes.

It was already #! /usr/bin/python3 but same problem !

nivhty commented Mar 14, 2022

You might want to check if your python3 is upgraded recently, the linked /usr/bin/python3 might have pointed to the new version of python3 which doesn't have the installed python modules because the path of the site-packages folder has been changed due to the upgrade.

This solved worked for me.

I just changed:

#!/usr/bin/env python3 to #!/usr/bin/env python
