Finder Quick Actions unavailable; 'Customize' option

Finder Quick Actions produce a "Customize" option; even after customizing, the Quick Actions are not available, only the "Customize" option reappears. Relaunching Finder and restarting computer have no effect.

There are 6 options in the Customize settings pane. Five of them show up with an image selected, two of them show up with a video file selected including the only one (Trim) that doesn't show up with an image selected.



Keep in mind that you access this via a secondary-click (control-click, two-finger click) and that's called a Contextual Menu, meaning the options you see will depend on the context, i.e. the type of file selected.
