The system automatically updated to PS 23.0. Now the PS crashes when trying to zoom in or tilt the image by hand on the touchscreen. I tried to disable the graph

I've used Creative Cloud apps for years, and now Photoshop is the only app that closes itself after a while with no warning. No crash report window appears because sometimes it closes even when idle. 

 

I've uninstalled Creative Cloud completely and reinstalled it and Photoshop and it still happens. All apps are up to date. How can I fix this?

 

Adobe Photoshop CC 23.0

Windwos 10 Pro

OS Version 19042.1288
Intel(R) UHD Graphics 750

Sounds like the crash reporter dialog might be disabled. See the instructions here to turn it back on: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/submit-crash-reports.html

 

Is your device a touch screen/pen enabled device?

I'm having the same issue. I have a Windows Surface Studio and every time I zoom or tilt with my touch screen the program freezes up and crashes. I submitted a couple crash logs. I tried deleting, resetting preferences, and reinstalling no help at all.

@chad.rolfs @J453 Hi, I am having a similar problem and have submitted crash reports when photohop crashes. It seems to crash strait away whenever I try to use the touch screen. Thank you

The new PS version will not allow me to use my Wacom Cintitq Pro. As soon as I zoom in or out with my tablet it crashes 100% of the time. Also, Having the Ps window open in my second monitor causes a lot of funny things to happen. For example, when on google chrome on my other monitor, I cannot type on my keyboard because it appears to access shortcuts like opening up a save window, etc. eventhough Ps is not being used/active. I did the troubleshooting by resetting my preferences, as suggested, but that didn't work. I updated all my drivers as well (GPU and Wacom). I did notice that by going to preferences on Ps and unchecking the "use gestures" my tablet no longer crashed Ps, but the zoom feature was still not working properly. I reverted back to Ps 22.5.2 and it all works perfectly. Shame that I spent my whole day with this headache due to a buggy release of Ps.

I agree 100%. Used 22.5 on saturday, no problem. used it again on SUnday and found my system had done an auto upgrade. How did I know? Aside form the differen tintro image, well crash crash crash crash every time using my cintiq wacom 24". upgraded drivers, and the only thing that worked was disabling GPD in preferences, which made everything move like mollasses. Not happening. So reverted for the first time in my subscription and disabled auto updates.

A terrible release.
