Convert Image not working
It's been my go to app to take a large photo and convert it to Large, Medium or Small. Now it doesn't work. Doesn't take any action.

This is what you mean in the Finder, right?
Give this a try: boot into Safe Mode according to How to use safe mode on your Mac and test to see if the problem persists. Reboot normally and test again.
NOTE 1: Safe Mode boot can take up to 3 - 5 minutes as it's doing the following;
• Verifies your startup disk and attempts to repair directory issues, if needed
• Loads only required kernel extensions (prevents 3rd party kernel/extensions from loading)
• Prevents Startup Items and Login Items from opening automatically
• Disables user-installed fonts
• Deletes font caches, kernel cache, and other system cache files
NOTE 2: if you have a wireless keyboard with rechargeable batteries connect it with its charging cable before booting into Safe Mode. This makes it act as a wired keyboard as will insure a successful boot into Safe Mode.

Old Toad, thanks for the info. I was just getting ready to do your suggestion when I saw I was due for a software update. I had already done a Restart and nothing happened but after I did the software update to Sequoia 15.0.1 the Convert started working again. I've always hesitated to do a Safe Boot (my bad) so I was glad this upgrade helped but your suggestion to go back to the basics was helpful. I'll keep this for future reference. Thanks again, Craig

What app is that?
Please read the following user tip and restate your question/problem in detail:

When you right click on an image file and then click Quick Actions and then Convert Image. Before, up until yesterday, it always would give me the option to click large, medium or small conversions. Now, nothing at all happens.
That's good to hear. It's always wise to be up to date on the software, particularly the system. 👍
