Photoshop 2026 UI bug on Windows.

When I open Photoshop, the left toolbar icons become grayed out, blank, or partially invisible. The tools appear to still be there, but the icons do not display correctly and the toolbar becomes difficult to use. At the same time, my Creative Cloud Libraries panel also loads slower.

This happens even when I create a brand-new untitled document, so it does not seem to be related to one specific PSD file.

Troubleshooting already attempted:

• Restarted Photoshop
• Restarted the computer
• Reset the workspace
• Restored toolbar defaults
• Renamed/reset the Photoshop 2026 Settings folder in AppData/Roaming
• Tested with a brand-new untitled document
• Checked whether the issue was tied to a specific file

The issue still continues after these steps.

Expected result:
The Photoshop toolbar should display all tool icons normally, and Creative Cloud Libraries should load correctly.

Actual result:
Toolbar icons appear gray, blank, or missing, and Creative Cloud Libraries fail to load or stop working at the same time.

This appears to possibly be related to Creative Cloud Libraries, Adobe sync/background services, or a Photoshop 2026 UI rendering issue.

I can provide screenshots showing the toolbar issue, as well as my Help > System Info details if needed.
