Photoshop CS6 (64 bit): Oil Paint Filter not working (on Windows 10)

Hi,

In Photoshop CS6 (64 bit) if I click menu Filter then the option "Oil Paint" is AVAILABLE (i.e.not greyed-out).

However, it is NOT WORKING:

If I click Filter > Oil Paint I get the following error message:

"Could not complete the Oil Paint command because the file could not be found."

I checked folder:

C:\Windows \ ProgramFiles \ Adobe \ AdobePhotoshop CS6 (64 bit) \ Required \ Plug-ins \ Filters

In this folder the file Oil_Paint.8BF IS actually present. So I don't see a reason why the Oil Paint filter doesn't work.

Can anyone tell what causes this problem, how do I solve it?

Notes:

- I am using Windows 10

- I am working in RGB colour mode

- image file is 8 bit
