P: Photoshop 27.10: "Edit in Photoshop" from Lightroom Classic & Lightroom Desktop does not load image with Denoise

with V 28.0 all problems are gone at my end! 

Photos that have been processed using AI modules and filters can once again be loaded into Photoshop (version 28) via the "Open as Layers" command!
Thanks

Just confirmed the images open fine after un-checking Denoise, but then LR won’t allow me to re-apply it after it returns from PS as a TIF, saying Denoise isn’t currently compatible with that photo format. Bummer.

Since Adobe claims the issue was fixed in the v28.0 PS update...wouldn’t it be nice to acknowledge that when rolling out this version so we ALL know this critical bug was finally corrected? We have to read about it on Forum Community sites...seriously. I know these things happen, but it disrupts the workflow so much that once identified and acknowledged, when the correction is made shouldn’t you be advising users it’s been corrected so we can catch up on the latest updated versions?   

• Description of Issue

• OS Version Number
  • ​​​​​​​Tahoe 26.6
• Camera Model (sometimes necessary)
  • ​​​​​​​DJI Mavic 3 Pro
• Step-by-step Reproduction Instructions (in precise terms, please)
  • ​​​​​​​see description
• The Expected Result
  • ​​​​​​​Open image in Photoshop to perform additional edits
• The Actual Result
  • ​​​​​​​Switches to PS, but no image opens.

Greetings all, 

A new update for the Adobe Photography products has been released.  The Max update v28.0 contains an update regarding this issue. 

If you do not see the update in your Creative Cloud Application, you can refresh it by pressing  [Ctrl/Cmd]+[Alt/Opt]+[ R ].

Note: It may take up to 24 hours for your update to be available in your Creative Cloud app.

Thank you for being so patient. 

New version released today and issues finally fixed!!!

I’m also experiencing this: a photo with Denoise applied in Lightroom Classic won’t open through Edit in Photoshop.

The Lightroom-to-Photoshop integration is a key part of my professional photography workflow. Having to export a TIFF manually or disable Denoise adds extra steps and interrupts that workflow. These workarounds are frustrating for something that should work seamlessly between two Adobe applications.

Can Adobe provide an update on progress toward a fix and an expected release?

I reported this exact bug about an hour ago, but I do not see it. THEREFORE: here’s some additional information:

Google AI seemed to think that my collection of photo apps had some influence, so here’s the list:

> ls -d1 /Applications/*|grep -E '/(Adobe|ON1|Topaz) '
/Applications/Adobe Bridge 2026
/Applications/Adobe Bridge 2027
/Applications/Adobe Creative Cloud
/Applications/Adobe Lightroom Classic
/Applications/Adobe Photoshop (Beta)
/Applications/Adobe Photoshop 2026
/Applications/Adobe Photoshop 2027
/Applications/ON1 Photo RAW 2026
/Applications/ON1 Photo RAW 2027
/Applications/ON1 Resize AI 2026
/Applications/Topaz DeNoise AI.app
/Applications/Topaz Gigapixel AI.app
/Applications/Topaz Photo AI.app
/Applications/Topaz Photo.app
/Applications/Topaz Sharpen AI.app

I suspect that the issue is that LR fires up PS 2026 and then uses the 2027 protocols to send the image. I would guess that that wouldn’t work very well. Anyway, my workaround is to use Bridge first and then LR will work correctly. It’s still a bug. Just because I have a functional workaround doesn’t mean there’s no bug.

I’ve been a bit frustrated trying to send images to PS, and I’ve tried most everything guided by Google and similar issues here. No go. I finally solved it:

1. Sending from LRc to PS fires up PS, but no image appears
2. bring up Bridge
3. open a couple of images
4. send them to Photoshop
5. Close the images
6. use LRc to send images to PS -- it works now
7. If you reboot, then start over.

LR: Build [202609251514-f839cde9]

PS: 27.11.1 release

BR: 16.0.8.10

Platform: Apple Studio w/ Mac OS 26.6.2

RFE for all products other than LR: LET ME COPY THE TEXT IN THE ABOUT BOX

Same problem here, so adding my voice.

Mac Studio M4 Max, macOS 26.5.2, Photoshop 27.11, Lightroom Classic 15.6. Canon R5 raws (CR3).

Any file with AI Denoise ticked won’t come across with Edit in Photoshop – Photoshop jumps to the front and then nothing, no error. The frame right next to it without Denoise opens fine. Manual noise reduction doesn’t cause it, only Denoise.

Untick Denoise, send it over, tick it again works, as does exporting a TIFF, but that’s a faff on every image and rather defeats the point of having Denoise in Lightroom in the first place.

Would be great to get this fixed – it’s been going since 27.10 and plenty of us use both apps together all day.
