What happened

Image upscale has never worked for me on macOS. I've just ignored the feature but maybe 3-6 months I've started to try to get it to work but can't. I've tried multiple computers and different versions of Invoke and macOS. It goes through the whole process but the gallery image is always a black image. I looked in the outputs/images directory and there are larger images in there that aren't exact copies, but they don't look any better than just making the image bigger in photoshop.

What you expected to happen
