Menu options greyed-out in Photoshop Elements 2020

[Gadaka]

Several menu options are greyed-out in PS Elements 2020 under multiple top-level Menu items.

I've tried signing-out of Elements to deactivate the license and signed-back in (re-entered) the serial # but the menu options still did not become available.

What is the problem?

Thanks,

Gabe

Please disregard my inquiry.

I just read a post for PSE 2019 (Solved: Most Menu Options Greyed Out - Adobe Support Community - 10292626) and the fix to move to the Expert tab.

@Gadaka, Even in Expert mode, most menu options will be greyed out (unavailable) unless you have an image loaded.

Thanks Walter!  Yeah, I figured that too.  Have a good one!

I have recently started having the same issue, only ALL of my drop downs are grey, even with an image loaded in the work window.  The issue occurs after a period of normal use, then I'm away from my computer for a while, and when I come back, everything has south. I can't close out the image via the X in the upper right corner. The only thing that restores my drop downs is a full restart of my MacBook Pro using the power button. 
I'm running Catalina 10.15.7.
