Toolbar icons not rendering/showing blank after latest Beta update.

 

Steps to reproduce:
1. Updated Photoshop Beta via Creative Cloud last week
2. Since then, all toolbar icons show blank/empty (left toolbar panel)
3. Tried: uninstall + reinstall, Creative Cloud reset, Windows Essential reset — issue persists
4. Photoshop Stable version works fine, only Beta affected

System: Windows, GPU set to Basic mode — still broken

    Hi ​@Shamshad26036257cbde 

    1. Try resetting Prefs for the Beta:
    /Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/ Photoshop Beta Settings (Mac Ventura)
    /Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ Photoshop\ \(Beta\)\ Settings (Mac)


    C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop (Beta)\Adobe Photoshop (Beta) Settings


    Launch BETA Photoshop While Pressing The Keyboard Shortcut
    With Photoshop closed, press and hold Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) / Shift+Command+Option (Mac) on your keyboard and then Launch Photoshop the way you normally would.

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

    Thanks,
