Can’t share from Photos

I’m trying to send a few pictures from Photos on my MacBook, but it won’t work. I’ve tried using different share options, like email and airdrop, but nothing happens when I select them. I’ve also tried drag and drop for an email, and it looks like it moves them, then they all disappear again. I don’t know what’s going on, but it’s incredibly frustrating. Help!

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

As a test launch Photos with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it? (This tells us if the problem is limited to your current library or is more wide spread)


Next, log into another user account, Set up users, guests, and groups on Mac and see if the problem persists. (This tells us if the problem is limited to your user account or is system wide).


Also what system and Photos versions are you running?
