Hi @Himanshu Katariya 

First, thank you again for your interest and help.

I have uninstalled Photoshop 23 and deleted the EdgeWebView folder. I also deleted "CommentsPanel 0" in "PSUserConfig.txt".

I then reinstalled Photoshop again, and checked that the EdgeWebView folder was installed correctly.

Finally, I opened Photoshop, but the error message came up again.

I had to recreate the line "CommentsPanel 0" in "PSUserConfig.txt", so that the error disappeared.

Unfortunately your last suggestion did not work. I hope you find this information helpful in resolving the problem.

Best regards.

Verto

Thank you
I did the steps, twice and it worked for me

Hi @Verto and all,

Please can you try following steps

1. Uninstall Phototshop 23.0
2. Delete the folder 'C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Microsoft\EdgeWebView' if the folder remains
3. Install Photoshop 23.0 again via Creative Cloud desktop app
4. Verify folder 'C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Microsoft\EdgeWebView' gets created

Let us know if this fixes the issue. If this does not help then we would suggest to go with the workaround mentioned earlier i.e. adding text CommentsPanel 0 in PSUserConfig.txt

Thanks,

Himanshu

Hi, @asanand 

First, I would like to thank you for your help.

I have been looking for the directory and the file that you indicate, but I could not find it. However, guided a little by your indications, I have accessed the Windows directory:

C:\Users\(my user folder)\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2022\Adobe Photoshop 2022 Settings\

In this directory I created a new text file with the name:

PSUserConfig.txt

Inside the file, I have inserted a line with the text:

CommentsPanel 0

Finally, I saved the file, and after closing it I restarted Photoshop. The result was positive. Now the error messages are no longer displayed.

I hope I did it right, and that other users will find this momentary solution useful, while Adobe releases an update to correct the error.

Thank you again for your help and I remain at your disposal, in case you wish to make any comments.

Best regards

Hi @The-Togfather  could you please try creating this text .txt file manually? 

Thanks,

Ashish

Hello @asanand . As you can see from the attached screenshot, I do ont have PSUserconfig.txt in that folder.

Best wishes
