Messages icon not showing as a sharing option in Preview app

I have User running macOS 13.3.1.


When using the Preview App. the Messages icon doesn't show up as a way to "share".

Trouble shooting:

Signed out of iCloud, Messages, and rebooted.

Moved Messages icon to the top of Extensions list:

But Messages icon does not appear as a sharing option in Preview app.

Appreciate any suggestions.

In the Preview.app — I do not use Messages on this Mac, however it shows as an option non-the-less....




The current stable release of Ventura including bug fixes, security updates is macOS Ventura 13.4 I would start there and compare your results...
