Remove Tag not working?

Hello,

I am trying to have a very simple rule to remove an existing tag for a file was opened.

- Does not work in iCloud or non-iCloud folder
- Get info is showing me the last opened date

Can't figure out what's wrong. Thanks for your help.

Your screenshot is not coming through. Make sure to use a third party image hosting site. imgur.com for instance.

Also, does it work if you do it manually in Finder?

Sorry about that, added a link to imgur

Yes, manually in Finder works as expected.

I see the file is orange but does it have the "to review" tag or does it just have the orange color label?

Also, did you check the rule status to make sure the file isn't matching a different rule?

It has the tag - not a color label unfortunately.
Looking at the log, it matches the rule but the tag is not removed. Not sure what the white lines in between are

I have it, it is now working I was just using incorrect logics to add and remove the tag + I forgot to add the "Continue matching rules" which caused other issues.

Here the working set-up, just in case it can be useful for reference.
