I did a lot of test on the subject because the case is still present and it takes my head. It seems that the "Combine" feature does not work if the files have an "Azure Information Protection" label with the July version of the Desktop (2.95.983.0). With the June version or with unlabeled files no problem during the "combine". In fact The error appears when creating the "parameter".
