iCloud Photos Disabled – 'Download All' Button Greyed Out & 25-Day Warning

I’m trying to recover and download all my photos and videos from iCloud.com, but I’m running into a major issue. The download button, along with all other controls, is greyed out, making it impossible to select my files.

At the top of the page, there’s a yellow banner that says:

"iCloud Photos has been disabled. You have 25 days remaining to make sure you have a complete copy of your photos and videos."

This is really confusing. If iCloud Photos is disabled, why am I still able to access my library, but not download anything?

Has anyone else experienced this? How can I download all my photos and videos before time runs out? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Apple, are you listening? Please help. Thank you.
