Can't save or import file in Firefox or Chrome

I can't upload or download files in Firefox or Chrome on my Ubuntu 22.04. Usually when I click on "attach" or "import" buttons, a window appears and I can choose a file on my hard drive. Now I don't have anything.

In the console I have this for Chrome (when I launch it):

[15774:15795:0529/141148.470338:ERROR:object_proxy.cc(623)] Failed to call method: org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.Get: object_path= /org/freedesktop/portal/desktop: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.InvalidArgs: L’interface « org.freedesktop.portal.FileChooser » n’existe pas

And in the Firefox console (when I try to import something):

firefox:3264): Gtk-WARNING **: 13:52:46.781: Can't open portal file chooser: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: L’interface « org.freedesktop.portal.FileChooser » n’existe pas pour l’objet à l’emplacement /org/freedesktop/portal/desktop

I tried a solution telling I should install this:

sudo apt update && sudo apt-get install --reinstall xdg-desktop-portal-gnome xdg-desktop-portal-gtk xdg-desktop-portal-tests xdg-desktop-portal

It didn't work...

What am I missing? Everything worked fine until a few weeks ago (first Firefox didn't work, now Chrome).

EDIT: I can't even drag a URL from the address bar to my bookmarks anymore...

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
