I was able to reproduce the issue on your BBS by switching your "Default" command shell (not the normal default, the Sychronet Classic Shell, but something you created apparently).

My guess is that you have a sub-directory of text/menu for your shell's menus and you're setting the global menu directory (PCMS global variable or JS bbs object property) in your shell to that directory, but you don't have a copy of editor.* in that directory.

You need to copy all the menu files to your custom sub-directory if you're going to be globally changing the menu directory in your shell.
