Hello!
I have the same problem. How did you solve it?

Restart Finder after the above command via: COMMAND + ALT + ESC, scroll down the list and select "Finder" and press "Relaunch".

Works fine here with MacOS Catalina Version 10.15.4 (19E266).

No errors, but no changes either on Catalina 10.15.6.
