Prusa Slicer not putting in the top layer

Just printed my latest design and came up to find none of the walls were attached to the base.  Then I noticed the rim around the base and realised that this was actually because this had not filled in.  The top surface was missing in the slice.   Would likely have failed anyway as I forgot to add infill and thus my confusion.

I added some infill and resliced but still come up with the infill and no topfill.  See the attached image.  

Is this a slicer error or is there some option I am missing somewhere.  As the Platter view looks okay and only the slice view is broken it feels like the modelling tool has done its. bit of the job.

Any help you can give would be welcome.  (this is using 2.4.2)

Could be a bunch of things.  Can you upload the 3mf file so it's not just wild guesses?

Thanks for replying fuchsr,   no need to upload I fixed the problem.  It has been a while since I have used this profile and I set it up an number of versions of PS ago.

Before I uploaded I decided to recheck it and this time I noticed the obvious thing I missed last time.   Solid Layers top set to ZERO.   I am a dumbarse and sorry to have wasted your time!
