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

With Photoshop 25, every time I start up PS, an image opens on my screen accompanied by a tuorial on generative ai by Anna McNaught. How to I disable this? I don't need it and I can't find a way to get rid of it.

 

Can someone help me with this please?

 

Thank you

Hi, Mohit.  I granted permissions to that directory and files.  Rebooted.  Anna is still there.  Sorry Anna, no offence.

Update May 2nd, the issue is not only NOT solved, it's consistently showing up on my photoshop without fail. All the time I open up, the Iceland file opens up, pop-ups opens up. This is extremely annoying and invasive.

Hi @Fanjoy,

 

Thank you for sharing the logs with us. According to the logs, you don't have proper permission access to the following folder: /Users/UserName/Library/Application Support/Adobe/ For steps, click here

 

Please grant read & write access to the Adobe folder, restart your machine and check if that helps to resolve the problem for you. Let us know the status.

 

Thanks,

Mohit

You can share the file with me via direct message.

I did update to V25.5.0.  Restarted.  Rebooted.  Kicked my Mac Studio a couple times.  Interestingly, my TV has better reception now, but Anna is still here.
