P: Median Crashing Photoshop

So I've been able to use Median before many times but now the minute I use it, Photoshop crashes and it says it's found a work around but then sends me to a vague link where I've done most if not all.

The bug is still active - and engineering is working on the issue. We will update this thread when there is a fix.

I've updated to the latest PSD and it is still happening. 

Are there any updates? It doesn't happen on all PSDs but it's happening on most of them.

@ClaudiaR99 / @CShubert - are there any updates with this? I updated my PSD and it still is crashing.

Hey @ClaudiaR99 this happened just now on a file of the following:

 

4100 x 6150px @ 72DPI

sRGB IEC61966-2.1 (8BPC)

Doc: 72.1M/4.29G

253 Layers, 51 Groups

 

I can send you a copy of the file if you give me an email, it's happening on MULTIPLE files of mine. I have an action that Gaussian Blurs and then copy-merge paste and then medians. But I've used just the median file and that's where it happens, the Gaussian Blur has never been an issue on it's own.

Hello @WScottForbes , I'd like to reproduce this issue and it would be very helpful to know what size of a file you were working with, a general description of the layers, what were the steps before the crash happened.

If it's possible to get a copy of the file that would be great. Thanks!

Thank you @CShubert  I will say that sometimes it is successful but then 10-20 seconds later it crashes. Only because of Median too (I have an action that I use to post process all my illustration work for clients).

@CShubert Yes I did that the first time and it still happened.

Thanks for the update @WScottForbes to make sure, did you try the manual process of resetting preferences?

Restore your preferences using this manual method:

Does it work correctly? 

If that doesn't solve it, you can quit Photoshop and put the Settings folder back. 

 

Thank you,
