Artboards to file export issue

I'm having a problem to export artboards to files (PNGs or JPGs).
When I try to export my artboards the program just freezes for a few seconds and then all the tools are available again but the program stops the export operation.

When I click to close that, photoshop prompts a couple of warnings:
1. The command "Select" is not currently available
2. Error: The requested action requires that the target document is the frontmost document 

First I thought it'd be a different problem so I've erased everything and even reinstall my Windows 11, then reinstalled Photoshop (25.5.0 release) and the problem continues...

I have tryed these three other links already and those are not my problems

Hey, @Rafael35501921mbja. Welcome to the Photoshop Community. I'll need more specific info about this, and I'll help you figure this out. Before troubleshooting, update Photoshop to the latest version (v25.5.1) via the Creative Cloud desktop app & check if the issue exists. 

 

If it does, please share the system info from Photoshop Help > System info > Copy & paste into a text document > upload & attach here. 

 

Does this happen with all documents or a particular document? 

 

Awaiting to hear from you. Thanks!
