No icon preview for eps-files in Sonoma

Hi all

It's been a while since last year after the system installation for all my eps files cannot preview. And i found a solution at the community as below. But it is not working any more recently, since the new system being installed, the info.plist cannot be written, only duplicated file can be updated.

I really need this function to work. It would help a lot.

Thanks and Best regards

1. Copy the "Illustrator.qlgenerator" from "/System/Library/QuickLook" to your desktop or any other folder you have read/write access to.
2. Open "Illustrator.qlgenerator" by right clicking it and select "Show package contents".
3. Open "Info.plist" in the "Contents" folder with a text editor.
4. Find the line "<string>com.adobe.illustrator.ai-image</string>"
5. Insert "<string>com.adobe.encapsulated-postscript</string>" below it with the same indentation and save the "Info.plist" file.
6. Copy "Illustrator.qlgenerator" to "/Library/QuickLook"

If you did everything right, you should now have .EPS previews back again. That's a workaround until apple fixes it in the System/Library, hopefully soon.
