Thank you! Can you try to run the following code:

```python
# %%
from pathlib import Path
import mne

sample_dir = mne.datasets.sample.data_path()
subjects_dir = Path(sample_dir) / 'subjects'

mne.bem.make_scalp_surfaces(
    subject='sample',
    subjects_dir=subjects_dir,
    force=True,
    overwrite=True
)

```
