Did you install it to the host or to the container?
I installed it to the host since I was told that hypervisors are meant to be installed to the host
That's correct. It should be installed on the host.
I am unfamiliar with qemu so I am unsure as to what is causing this.
(Sorry, I just realised I posted the wrong picture) And that’s when I run it as root, when I run it as standard user, I get the “permission denied” error
Solution
so you need to enable
libvirtd and edit the libvirtd configjust google "qemu setup arch" and you'll find the edits you need to make

then add this to system.yaml:
..
you don't use
systemctl to enable services this timeok
to start/stop them sure, but to enable them you use
system.yamlok thanks
