Dear Maintainer,

By using timeshift GUI (timeshift-gtk), it's not possible to browse
the content of the snapshot.

Steps to reproduce :

* Configure timeshift (I'm using BTRFS Snapshot)
* Create a snapshot
* Select the snapshot and click on the "Browse" button, to see the
content of the snapshot

-> Nothing happen while I expected to be able to see the files and
directories of the snapshot.


I catched the following error message when I started the program from
gnome-terminal right after clicking on the "Browse" button

[6516:0618/191255.550851:FATAL:electron_main_delegate.cc(263)] Running

without --no-sandbox is not supported. See https://crbug.com/638180.

Good day,
