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?

      Hi the suggestion to install an older option is not available on my Creative Cloud. I would but I only have the option to uninstall/add-ons, can you make the other versions accessible? I dont have auto update even turned on when this started.

        I've merged your posts with the existing thread on this issue and amended the title to reflect that it is happening in the release version as well as the beta.

        I use Photoshop for my work, but now I can't open it. I can't find a way to fix this bug either. I tried to uninstall the app and download it again but it isn't working. I need some help

              I'm having the same problem. After I updated Photoshop it doesn't work and I can't install the old versions, I need to work and I can't. My client needs the work delivered. Who will bear my losses?
