Existing batch files not working

Question

I've used the same, simple batch file for years (Open, image file to 72dpi, save, and close) Today it doesnt work with an error "Could not complete the command because of a program error"

I have re-recorded the batch but still get the same. Frustrating when I have hundreds of files to upload to the web!

I'm using Photoshop 24.3.0 Release on a Win 11 PCand its all up to date. Any ideas please?

This is a known bug with this build, it has been announced by Adobe staff that the fix is in place but not when the new release will be ready for download.

Until then, you can use a script to batch process (just remove the open, save and close steps as the script will handle that):
