What does "Cannot Start Editing: Photos cannot load adjustments for this image" mean?

What does "Cannot Start Editing: Photos cannot load adjustments for this image" mean? This just started to appear this afternoon, after I had been successfully editing scores of photos.

i photo fault. Photos cannot load adjustments for this image. Has anyone managed to sort this problem out please? The 'Photos cannot load adjustments for this image' message seems to be more common on older photos, but oddly not all. I have found you can solve it by copying the image and pasting into a folder. Once there it can be dragged back into i photo and then is available for editing as normal. Not being technical that does not help me overall. Some help would be appreciated. Thanks.

How can I fix - CANNOT START EDITING. PHOTO CANNOT START LOADING ADJUSTMENTS FOR THIS IMAGE I cannot edit my photo's! Everything is going along smoothly and then.........another problem. WHY!! I didn't do anything different. I always make the effort to resolve it on my own but every time I do it's like pulling teeth. When there is a $ ton of users with the same issue and nothing to resolve the problem, I have to call Apple every time. I guess I shouldn't complain...they are always super helpful. I just don't understand why such a simple issue isn't noted on the support site. Thanks ahead of time if you consider this issue!!🙂

How can I fix a Photos Edit glitch? Now, when I want to edit a photo and click Edit, I am shown a small version which is "inactive" so I have to click Done and open the photo to Edit a second time; second time, it is fine. This is a new glitch that has arrived with Monterey.
