P: Photoshop beta crash on launch

(Sorry if this has been asked before.)

With the latest Photoshop beta update, it crashes on launch.

I have uninstalled the Photoshop beta, uninstalled and reinstalled CC, restarted, unchecked GPU composting in the non-beta version., and reinstalled Photoshop beta, it still crashes on launch (the icon in the dock bounces once and stops without launching).

I have been using Photoshop beta since it was available, even though there is a warning that my (older) OS may cause issues. 

I on a team (Enterprise) version of CC.

Mac OS Big Sur 11.7.10

Al iniciar la aplicación de photoshop beta versión 25.8 sale un error y no inicia solo pasa con esta versión, puesto que he instalado versiones anteriores a esta y no he tenido ningún problema, dejo captura de pantalla con el error por si alguien sabe a que es debido, gracias.

@Afactory Do you have the DxO Nik plugin suite installed? Try disabling that and see if Photoshop opens successfully.

You can also start Photoshop holding the Shift key to disable plugins.

The same happens here. The latest working beta is 25.7 2575, when I install 25.8 2581 it doesn't open when I send files from Lightroom. Remark: I also have NIK collection installed!

When I install the latest version of Photoshop Beta 25.8 (m.2581), it just won't open (W 11). It seems to be some incompatibility with the Nik Collection 6 filters. I should have uninstalled the program and reinstalled PS Beta 25.7.0.
Any news on this?
I like to keep up to date with the latest Beta version of Photoshop.
Thank you very much for your attention.

Windows 10 PC.  Updated Beta to v25.8 today, but now when I try to open it getting error message - nothing to explain, just says 'an error has occurred.

Hi @GeorginaRJ could you share a screenshot of the error you are seeing? What steps did you do when you saw this?

 

What happens if you try to launch Ps release version, any issues or is this just with Ps beta? Have you deleted Ps beta via the CCD app and reinstalled?

 

Thanks,

Hi Cory

See screenshot

PS (latest version) is working fine, it's just Beta that's crashing and not
opening at all. I haven't tried deleting and reinstalling. I note that in
the community there is mention of DXO Nik Collection. I have this
installed which seems to be something common with others having this
issue.

@andiho67 the team is still investigating this.

 

Please make sure you have the latest Ps beta: Adobe Photoshop Version: 25.8.0 20240411.m.2581 c235e07 arm64

 

It may help if we could see your Photoshop System Info. Launch Photoshop, and select Help >System Info...and copy/paste the text in a reply.  

 

Thanks,

Hi Cory, I got on Tech Suppor since we have a Team account. Apparently the "standard" Photoshop 2024 has the AI functions (I didn't know this) so I will use that for now and now worry about the Beta for the time being, but still would like know why it didn't launch. And apparently the graphics card that I have could be faster or newer (AMD Radeon R9 M290X 2 GB).

@Cris108 the team is still looking into this. 

 

Do you have the same issue with Ps release version, or is this issue just in Ps beta?

Hi Cory, Any update on this?

I downloaded the most recent Pshop Beta 25.7.0, the "Verification" comes up but still no launch.

Been using the Beta on this computer since it came out with no problems, but not since the last 2 updates.

Is the iMac too old now? It's a late 2014, OS Big Sur 11.17.10

Illustrator Beta, inDesign, and Acrobat are all fine.

Let me know. I had been using the AI functions of Pshob Beta pretty much every day.
