On MacOS (catalyst app, but AppKit bundle) I am creating Share submenu in main app menu "on fly" from menu delegate like this:
func menuWillOpen(_ menu: NSMenu) {
self.provider = NSItemProvider(contentsOf: url)! //url points to existing temporary file of type .png
menu.removeAllItems()
let srvcs = NSSharingService.sharingServices(forItems: [self.provider!])
for srv in srvcs {
let it = NSMenuItem(title: srv.menuItemTitle, action: #selector(openSharingService), keyEquivalent: "")
it.image = srv.image
it.representedObject = srv
it.target = self
menu.addItem(it)
}
}
@objc private func openSharingService(sender: NSMenuItem) {
let service = (sender.representedObject as! NSSharingService)
service.perform(withItems: [self.provider!])
}
It works well for any share type, except for Send To Photos. With Send To Photos, I am getting this error in console:

Photos app is opened and image is added to it, but my app recieves the above error and its menus are all grayed out until restarted. Am I doing something wrong here?
