macOS 27: App Hangs on Launch (Version: 27.11.0)

Hi ​@GregR_24, Thanks for reaching out to the Photoshop Community Forums! Let's try a few things and see if we can help:

• Resetting Photoshop Preferences: Meanwhile, you can try resetting Photoshop preferences using the steps mentioned here: https://adobe.ly/4jmvs7u. Please back up your settings before resetting the preferences. You can check:  https://adobe.ly/3YW1WOu

• Use the Adobe Cleaner Tool to reinstall:  https://adobe.ly/4zrPmGm

• Disable GPU Acceleration:

  • Go to Photoshop's Preferences > Performance.

  • Uncheck Use Graphics Processor and restart Photoshop.

If none of these steps work for you, we can continue to troubleshoot. I hope this helps! ^CH
