Oh.. and make sure the file is saved before trying to generate, wont work unless the file has been saved.

Ahhhh, after some hair pulling... there is an extra step to get this working if the menu is greyed out... (this is so stupid.) You have to enable Generator in - Settings / Plugins / Generator It's odd you can see it disabled in the menu? (Why show it if it's unavailable and inactive, at least provide a hint), you need to go and manually activate it if you want it to function as it once did. Hey Adobe here is a free UX tip.... if someone opens a file with the image .tags applied to their individual layers there is a 'good chance' this generate item should be activated automatically - no user input required. Alternatively have the Generate plugin activation in the Automate menu, call me crazy. Making users fumble around and dig for the answers on the interwebs is a really bad experience.

Yeah, not a great solution. Buried away where nobody can find it as this thread will testify... UX 101 Fail Adobe. Found it only after reading a number of threads like this one, unfortunately it appears to be permanently disabled and greyed out for me. Nothing I try will enable the generate feature, it always used to work with my files before it was moved. Everything is labelled correctly... no clue. Do I have to do a special Adobe incantation to the photoshop gods??... or search for another button to activate and start the thing generating? Very perplexed. Clearly not enough thought has gone into relocating this item so it makes sense for the regular user. I've just resorted to Quick Export to PNG - to get my work done.
