Unable to change Save As Mesh format

I just exported a component as an STL using the Save As Mesh option.  I'd like to explore some of the other formats I saw on the dropdown, but when I try to export again, the Format option in the Save As Mesh dialog is grayed out and stuck on STL.  How can I bring back the dropdown?

As requested.  The component being exported is Box (1):1.  Thanks for any tips.

Hi,

uncheck "Printutility"

Thanks, gunther.  That solves part of the problem, letting me select, say, .3mf, but it also prevents me from exporting directly to my slicer.  If I select .3mf, then reselect Send to 3D Print Utility, the Format goes back to STL and is unchangeable.  I can live with this, but it would be preferable to be able to select both .3mf and Send to 3D Print Utility.
