Blank Contact Sheets

I'm running the latest OS and version of Photoshop on a Mac. I've made contact sheets today already with no problems. I tried to make some more and the pages are now blank. I've restarted and I've tried going through Bridge. Nothing works now. This has happened in the past and just corrected itself, I thought. How does it work one minute and not the next. I have no weird file names or special characters in the file names. I make contact sheets nearly every day, so this is not foreign to me. I just want to know why? I also tried using just a simple JPEG and it still shows up blank.

Still trying to add the attachment without an error. I went to Bridge (most recent version) and tried to make the contact sheets form there. It brought me to Photoshop and gave me an error. The error message states: "Error: General Photoshop error occurred. This functionality may not be available in this version of Photoshop. -<no additional information available>

 

But it's working perfectly this morning. Whatever....it's Friday!

Consternating, eh, PB?

 

First, please clarify for me -- you're using Ps 2026> File>Automate>Contact Sheet II, right?

Could you post a screenshot of the Contact Sheet II dialog:

It "feels" to me that a blank sheet = no files selected, but that's not possible. Or is it...

I tried to print without selecting images, got warned "Select an image folder | OK"

Here's a screenshot. I am selecting files. I do this all the time. I'm running Photoshop 27.2.0873554i87431B68B4DD1695.png

It's very annoying to perform a task every day and then, all of a sudden, it stops working with no error message or anything.
