Is gnome-terminal package installed in your system? You can verify that in CLI by running the command "pacman -Q gnome-terminal"

Also you can press alt+f2, type gnome-terminal and press the enter key to launch terminal.

Hi Matthew,
I'd try to go to a virtual console (usually Ctrl+Alt+FN, N = 1..12, F1 is probably your desktop environment) and use journalctl[1] to find some logs related to gnome-terminal. Also having access to a command line you can install some other terminal emulator[2] to be able debug issues from your graphical environment. Running gnome-terminal from a terminal emulator (not from virtual console) should give you a pretty good idea what is going wrong.

Hi,
This morning I tried to reinstall gnome terminal and got no dice. I wonder if something like mate-terminal might work, but not really good with advance stuff. So it is deffennetly very strange since it just stoped working rite out of the blue. Oh well.

Somebody mentioned alt+f2 by a previous post. This seemingly opens a GNOME "run dialoge". Did you try launching it that way? If so, isn't there anything in .xsession-errors? You don't have at least xterm or something similar installed? Simply run another terminal and launch gnome-terminal by command line from this other terminal and post the output.
Hi,
the output of
less ~/.xsession-errors
should provide the same or at least similar output, as launching gnome-terminal from command line. Much unlikely that journalctl does contain any user session related logs of the kind you want to get.
If you are using some GNOME launcher, are you using a launcher dedicated for gnome-terminal or is it a launcher trying to open a "preferred" terminal?
