I cant share photos. When I hover over the share button, the program closes and I get an error message.

When my cursor hovers over the share button in a photo I want to share, the program quits and an error message appears. Why can't I share a photo?

iMac 27″, macOS 12.6

Wow that's crazy. I don't know what's going on, but the first things to try are these:

Restart the computer (of course)
Rebuild your Photos Library by closing Photos and re-launching by option-command-clicking the app icon.
Make a new user and see if the same problem recurs with it
Use another library if you have one, or make a small test Library with a few pictures in it and see if the same thing happens.
Start in Safe Mode (different for different computers)
