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.

Continued use case bug report.
Hey Adobe

Please fix this ASAP!🙂

When using Denoise on bracket RAW files in Lightroom and use [Edit] → [Merge to HDR Pro in PhotoShop] PhotoShop stop responding and must be shut down by using Task manager → end task. ☹️

When using Denoise on bracket RAW files in Lightroom and use [Edit] → [Merge to HDR Pro in PhotoShop] PhotoShop BETA also stop responding and must be shut down by using Task manager → end task. ☹️

The function [Merge to HDR Pro in PhotoShop] from Lightroom works when NOT using denoise on bracket RAW images.

The function worked until 3-4 weeks ago!

Using Windows 11
Nvidia Gforce RTX 4070 TI graphics card
Lightroom version: Lightroom Classic version: 15.5.1
PhotoShop version: 27.10.00
PhotoShop BETA version: 27.12.00

Update as of sept 12th - PROBLEM FIXED - short term!

Short term the problem I have experienced is solved by uninstalling PhotoShop 27.10 (latest version at this post) and install the previous version.

I am up to date (as of today, 18 Sept 2026) with both Photoshop (27.10.0) and LRC (15.5.1). I normally first process my images in DxO Pure Raw (latest version) saving as DNG, then process the image in LRC, Synchronize them, before opening as layesr in Photoshop in order to Focus Stack. Today I attempted to do this but Photoshop simply hung, no images opened. If I do not process (brightness, contrats etc) the images in LRC then I can send them in to Photoshop as layers to Focus stack them. It could be three images, or ten images. No luck.

Yesterday, 17 Sept 2026, I could first process the images in LRC before sending them as layers to Photoshop. There have been no software updates since then, and as far as I’m aware, no settings have changed in any of the programs. Windows hasn’t run an update in the last three days.

@zby323599670xgq Did you try to roll back to Photoshop 27.9 as suggested earlier: Creative Cloud app > Photoshop > 3-dot menu > Other Versions

Rolling back a version appears to have worked for the time being.

Open as layers in Photoshop has been having some problems since 27.8 For what it's worth, I'm convinced that what we're seeing here is still part of that same problem. I reported this at 27.8, it was still broken 27.9, and now we're having issues with 27.10 Here's a link to the previous bug that I reported. 27.8 open layers in photoshop bug @Sameer K

I just reinstalled 27.7. Everything is perfect. If you're looking for a workaround, that's it.

Problem gelöst. Es liegt an einem bekannten Bug beim Import von Lightroom in Photoshop 27.10.0. Beim Downgrade auf 27.4.0 war der Fehler nicht mehr da.

In a lightroom library in which all images were taken at the same time, I found that some of the photos would open normally in PS for editing, and others would not. I tracked down that the ones that would not open in PS had been images to which I had applied the reflection removal tool in Lightroom. Taking the “tick” out of the apply reflection tool box in Lightroom allowed the photo to then be edited in PS. This is uysing the latest versions of both (LR updated 12 days ago, and PS 4 days ago.
