Not able to import PGP Public key from a sender

Thunderbird Privacy en befeiliging

Hi everyone, I'm new to both PGP and Thunderbird. I've installed the client on my Mac, latest release, 78.3.3 I've generated my own PGP keys and imported into Thunderbird. When I try to import a public key from a sender, to enable encryption with him, simply the option is not available (see screenshot 1) If I try to open an .asc key, thunderbird asks me to open it as key and add it to openPGP, but after confirmation, a "Null" error popup is shown, and the key is not imported.
