Fill not available for selections in Photoshop CC 20.0.1

I just updated my copy of Photoshop CC to 20.0.1. I edited a file from Lightroom, used the polygonal lasso tool to define a selection, then right clicked on the selection. That opens a menu of actions one can take, but the one I want, fill, is not selectable. You can't click it. It always worked before. Am I suddenly doing something wrong or is this a bug? Is there a fix? Thanks.

Check the layers panel. Are you on a pixel layer or a layer that can't be edited directly with out opening or rasterising (such as a smart object)

Dave,

Thank you for your help. For some reason When the photo was brought from Lightroom into Photoshop it was put on a “locked” background layer. That hasn’t happened before. In any case, I unlocked the layer and the problem was solved. So, you got me to the answer. Thank you.

You should still be able to fill a background layer, as opposed to a smart object.

Out of interest - did you bring the image in from Lightroom Classic or Lightroom CC? I ask as a few folk have reported  problems with greyed menu items after opening images from Lightroom CC in Photoshop
