Could not place .atn because no parser or file format can open the file.

I opened Photoshop CC 19 and noticed that I was missing two sets of actions. Not sure why only two went missing, but they are the most recent. When I try to add them again I am getting the following error: 

 

Could not place "name of action set.atn" because no parser or file format can open the file.

 

I have restarted my computer, updated PS, and done an uninstall/reinstall. No luck. 

 

What else can I try? Thanks!

You can't place an action, you need to add it. Are you using the panel menu to add?
