Blurry Photos

I am using Photoshop Elements 2022 and when I opened my photos today I noticed a red symbol, looks like a power button, in the upper left corner of my thumbnail photos.  When I select a photo, it opens as a blurred photo.  How do I fix this?

Can you please show us a screenshot of your red symbol on the photo.   Is it a circle with a diagonal line across it?

If you double-click on a blurry photo, does it come back into focus?  Alternatively, what happens if you select the photo and press Ctrl+Shift+U to update the thumbnail?

The symbol is a red circle with a vertical line.  It looks like the power button symbol.  I double-clicked the blurry photo and it did not change.  Updating thumbnail did not work.  Here is a screenshot of the photo.
