OpenRC XFCE apps stop launching randomly

2 days ago I installed artix-base-openrc and download xfce. the issue is that all apps randomly stops launching. After relogin or restart everything is then fine. 
EX: i logged in. now during work no matter if im browsing or writing code, when i try to open an app, it wont open and i had to relogin or restart for it to solve. After restart or re-login every app starts to launch again without changing anything.

What output do you get when starting said app from a terminal?

didn't tried to run an app from terminal other than Firefox which gave no output . FYI, the browser sometimes takes too long to launch and sometimes doesn't launch until i restart or re-login. when that happens and i run firefox command, nothing happens. but when i click on the browser icon i saved in panel,nothing happens and then after a minute i get error messages saying that firefox/librewolf is already running but not responding and then browser launches.  but when this happens, all other apps also stops to launch
