P: Crash switching between programs

All of my regularly used Adobe products are crashing very frequently.
Photoshop & Acrobat the most, multiple times a day
Lightroom occasionally

All up to date on OS and Adobe CC. Multiple restarts. Frequently, but not always, happens when switching from one adobe product to another. No other software on my computer is acting this way

This is very aggravating

    I have Photoshop 20.0.4. It crashes several times per day. I have restarted my computer. I agree with Rich, Do you think Adobe might waive my annual fee until I'm able to use the latest version? I will be working on editing photos and it will crash.

    This should now be fixed in the Photoshop 20.0.3 release.
    Feel free to update Photoshop and let us know if this is resolved for you.

    To update Photoshop CC to 20.0.3, click "Update" in the Creative Cloud desktop app next to Photoshop CC.
    More detailed instructions for updating

    Sorry for the crashes!
    Regards,
    Pete

    Hi Stephen, can you install the 20.0.2 update. It should fix the primary crash you were seeing the most based on the logs you submitted.

    Jeff,if you are referring  to this issue,

    Jeff,thanks for your response. .None of the options work,that is "Batch","Merger to HDR","PhotoMerge",,etc.even your"workaround" didn't do much for me.I dont use them that often so it isnt that important at the moment. However I would like to see it remedied.
    Thanks again.

    Im not getting a crash report,,it just that NOTHING happens when I

    We all know, that W 10 causes many problems, one gets crazy. But this time it's not Microsoft, it's CC 2019 - Macs have the same or similar problems and older version of CC work perfectly. 
    I hope the promised update leads back to the traditional prefect quality - please test it first with photographers doing their daily work!

    My MacPro has 128GB of RAM, and LR 8 will gobble up as much as 85GB when doing nothing.  I too have to run Memory Clean 3 around 10/day, but only when LR is running.  Otherwise, no issues.

    LR has memory leakage, plain and simple.  And the more RAM available to grab, it will do so with impunity.

    PS-16GB RAM is, sadly, no longer enough! I have a 16GB iMac, and have to run Memory Clean like 10 times/day, even with every other app closed! https://fiplab.com/apps/memory-clean-for-mac
