Batch plot does not allow me to continue, does not freeze.

I reinstalled Windows 11 fresh install and reinstalled AutoCAD LT today.  Everything appears to be working normal with default settings until I try to batch plot.

 

I am at the "Save Print Output As" dialog.  It is not allowing me to type anything into the File Name box.  So I cannot save the file.  Clicking Cancel or the X does not close out.  The button makes the pressing animation, so the software is not frozen.  It simply acts as if the buttons are not coded.

 

Anyone else have this and know how to fix?  Thanks in advance.

 

Adding: Windows task manager does not indicate the software is locked up.  

 

Adding 2: Seems to be an issue only with batch plot.  Single sheet works fine.

I seem to have solved the problem, so I will document in here in case this can help someone else.

 

I changed whatever was in this drop-down box to "PDF" and that fixed it.
