P: Photoshop Beta & v26.1 on Windows - Launch Error: dxcore.dll

Today after the update I encountered that my Photoshop won't open due to this error: “(Photoshop beta.exe) Failed to continue code execution because the system did not detect dxcore.dll. To fix this error, try reinstalling the application.”
---

I have reinstalled several times already, but it didn't help me in any way. I also searched for solutions, but found nothing useful 😞
Since I urgently need the program for work, I wanted to install at least the previous version, but from what I understand, it is not possible to do so
---

Does anyone know how to fix it or how to install the previous version?

If anyone who disclosed the issue originally could confirm it's fixed for you, I'll pursue other troubleshooting, but if anyone else can please confirm how you resolved, I would greatly appreciate it.

WOW - So 1 person with a likely fake account (potentially even crafted by someone at Adobe) says "thanks it worked", and you ignore the post immediately following citing that it didn't work?    I (just now, 3:45pm ET, 11/28) completely uninstalled, reinstalled the latest Beta of Photoshop, and there is a distinct warning for DxCore.dll.    Since obviously Windows hasn't updated their software to suddenly reinstall DxCore.dll, and the new Beta still requires it, then obvously the latest Beta could not possible have resolved the issue.    Since this is "fixed", shall those who still have the issue open a new thread?

This is the Beta version section in Adobe Creative Cloud.

How do you install this version...My Adobe Creative Cloud just has a generic Install and that does not fix the issue - thank you.
