P: Edit in Photoshop window not coming to the front automatically

I'm having this issue after upgrading to 24.4.1 with Lightroom 12.3 on Windows 10.  The taskbar tab turns orange, but I have to click on it to get Photoshop to come forward. 

Any idea what's going on?

 

Thanks,

David

But now, just a few days later after installing the new version of Photoshop, the behavior is back to not opening from Lightroom when I choose 'open in...' I have no idea how to fix this now. I'm still reporting it as a bug as it still hangs and even though the document opens in Photoshop, the program does not switch from Lightroom to Photoshop like it used to in the past.

Ah Yes! Happy Day, and thanks for checking up on me. For some reason my Photoshop became 'uninstalled' I mean it worked but there were no more updates working since two updates ago. I have no idea how that happend but is why I never got a new update. Re-installed now with latest update and it works! Finally, like old times and going correctly. Thank You!

I look forward to updating then. I don't see any newer versions and my cloud is always active. Wonder why... I'll just be patient, the latest versions of everything else, I have the entire Adobe Suite, have been coming through regularly.

That's likely your problem then. There are 2 newer versions that what you have, unfortunately you are not up to date. There's a 24.5 and a 24.6.

24.4.0 - I don’t see a new version ready for upload but usually update the minute they come out.

I have tried to upload a video and it will only accept a URL for a video, so I cannot upload the file to this forum.

Here is the video file of what is happening... Oops, Support Community will only accept a URL as a video type to upload, I have the video on my desktop and it will not accept that.

I have tried to take a video using my iPhone and used Lightroom to try to import the video so I could send to you and chose 'trust' to get the files onto my computer but it said is was replacing all of my files on the computer with the contents of the iPhone and now I think I am in a. worse mess than I was when I started because I don't know how to get a video of the screen off of my iPhone so I can choose the file and send to you. From Light room I tried to import the video off of the iPhone onto my Mac to the desktop and it imported but when I looked at the desktop there is no video file there. This is terrible.  I was able to take a video of what is happening which is nothing really other than showing Lightroom, right clicking on an image and choosing open in Photoshop and then it does nothing... I have to choose the app Photoshop to see the image which indeed did open but does not switch from Lightroom to Photoshop like it used to do, I have to choose Photoshop manually and then can see the file opened there. I am hesitant now because of the mess this has been to try to delete Photoshop and reinstall because I don't know how or what is the correct way to do that...

Hi Ken,

 

Can you share a small video of the workflow (and the issue thats happening)

Currently what all versions of Photoshop are installed (can you please try to uninstall and reinstall PS versions once ) ?

 

Thanks,

Arjun
