PS 22.1 Merging and Saving "Could not complete your request because of a program error."

I cannot save and I cannot merge layers.

I did my work around of making all layers unseen and with BG selected I was able to SAVE AS. But that's it. I can't merge layers, merge down, merge visible or merge group. It all gives the exact same error message:  "Could not complete your request because of a program error."

This started happening after I updated, out of 3 photos the issue is only on 1. The 1 photo with the issue has 5 layers. 1 locked BG layer, 1 duplicate of BG, 3 imported layers with masks on each of them.

Is this what corruption looks like???

Don't know if this will help anyone else but I seem to be fixed.

I was on 22.1 version and rolled back to 22.01 and everything seems to be working as expected.

Rollback worked for me too.

On that same photo having the issues, I now can't use spot heal because it gives the same  "Could not complete your request because of a program error."message.

I installed Big Sur and it started right after that. They have deleted my preferences, Disabled use graphics card under performance. Ask me a ton of questions but have not come up with an answer as of yet.
