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

Since today’s Photoshop 27.10 update, the “Edit in Photoshop” command in Lightroom Classic 15.5.1 is not working anymore for me. Photoshop opens automatically as before (if it’s not open yet) but no image is being loaded. Downgrading Photoshop to 27.9.1 resolves the issue and the “Edit in Photoshop” functionality is back to normal. I also tried to change the external editing file format from TIFF to PSD or PSB but this didn’t make any difference. Anyone else facing the same issue? 

I’m running macOS Tahoe 26.6.2. Closing and re-opening LRC and PS didn’t solve the problem, rebooting the machine also didn’t show any effect. 

P.S.: I posted this in the Photoshop forum as well

      Hi everyone,

      Thank you for the detailed reports and reproductions here. It has been really helpful in isolating the issue quickly. I’ve filed this for the engineering teamto investigate and prioritize. 

      In the meantime, here are confirmed workarounds:

      • Downgrade to Photoshop 27.9.1 via the Creative Cloud app (Other versions > 27.9.1).
      • Alternatively: Temporarily disable Denoise in Lightroom Classic before sending to Photoshop, then re-apply back in Lightroom, or it using Camera Raw as a filter inside Photoshop.

      We understand this disrupts a core editing workflow and appreciate your patience. We'll update this thread as we have more information.

        photos do not open from Ligthtroom to Photoshop if denoise has been applied. Photoshop opens but the files don’t.

        As stated in this thread, revert to Photoshop 27.9 until it’s fixed: Creative Cloud app > Photoshop > 3-dot menu > Other Versions

            Same issue here as well. Maybe a slight variation, some files (a few) do open, most do not. Have no time or nerve to figure out what makes them work or not. Please get it resolved yesterday. Thanks

            Oh btw, it also seems to affect PS 26.11.7 als well… files do not open either.

            Now I can call my customer and let them know that the project will run late as I did trust Adobe with the updates...

              It is now 9/19/26.  This problem began Yesterday.  I have uninstalled and re installed both programs and have the correct setting in the external editing preference in Lightroom.

                ​@han4bond Adobe is working on it. It takes as long as it takes. Please be patient. In the meantime you can downgrade to Photoshop 27.9.1.

                I’m also working with 27.9.1 until the bugs in 27.10 are solved
