P: I'd like to know how to disable the startup tutorial about generative ai

Funny that you mention that. I started having this issue after updating 😞 

Interesting, and yet my problem went away after updating to 25.1. There's so many of you still suffering from this pesky issue. I'd like to know why mine stopped while all of yours persists. 

Confirm, same annoying bug

25.2 still the same problem 😞 annoying 😞

I updated the Photoshop and still have the issue. Dows this tutorial really needed? They can disable this completely. I really don't want to see it everytime I opened the app.

Sorry. I still have the problem.

I have the same issue since 2 months on Windows, but it works fine on my Mac.

Thank you Fanjoy. You made me laugh out loud, and that's nice to start my day with. That's another good reason to be part of this community. Hope though, that Adobe finds a solution soon.

Have a nice day!

Here's an update on my part. I've been in contact with Pattie from Adobe who helped me resolve the crashes I've been having, which were apparently unrelated to the Generative Fill tutorial. Photoshop 25.1 is able to run normally, however the tutorial comes up every single time, despite the fix attempts proposed by Pattie.

I also now observe some new weird thing if the tutorial is allowed to play, where a gray pop-up window with no content  remains stuck on the screen forever until Photoshop is closed (usually it's the size in the attached screenshot, sometimes it's just an outline line, as if the pop-up window had a height of 0). I don't get this if I close the tutorial file quick enough.

Workarounds include:

- Paying attention while Photoshop launches so I can close the tutorial file immediately (no getting coffee while it loads, or I'll be stuck with the gray box)

- Opening Photoshop on one monitor and moving the window to my second monitor, so the sticky pop-up stays behind and doesn't block half the window (not great) 

These issues persist in 25.2, unfortunately. The gray box is definitely related to the tutorial steps appearing on-screen (although these steps are in a separate pop-up which I can move around or close if I want to), it's not an issue if the tutorial isn't allowed to run its course.
