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.

    “Edit In -> Edit In Adobe Photoshop 2026” does not work for some raw files (it appears raw files [.cr3]  that LrC Denoise has been applied to). LrC opens PS but the image is never opened in PS. Other raw files open in PS and raw file with LrC edits with Denoise edit NOT done to them do open in PS as well.

     

    LrC: 15.6 Release

    PS: 27.11.0

    OS: Apple Tahoe 26.7.1 (25G241)

    Camera: Canon R5

    I just updated to 27.11 and still not fixed! Now not only does “open as layers” fail, but so does “edit in PS” option (cmd E).

    Had to go back down 2 versions to get it to work.

    Unbelievable that the recently released v27.11 has still not fixed this highly annoying bug… There must be countless users using Denoise in Lightroom whose workflow has been completely broken for a couple of weeks now. I guess, it’s another month or two sticking with 27.9.1 for me.

    By “new version” are you referring to 27.11?

    Hello ​@adaptable_focusd9ca 

     

    Sorry for the late reply. I hope the problem is resolved by now. If not, kindly share more details, like the versions of the OS/Photoshop and Lightroom installed, along with a brief screen recording of the problem, so we can assist you further.

     

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    The fact that an existing feature—not a newly added one—has stopped working shows that Adobe is either slacking off or simply incompetent.

    从27.10到27.11,都会出现在lightroom里选择多张图片,在photoshop里以图层形式打开时出现错误,如图所示。而在27.9.1之前,包括27.9.1,不会出现此问题。
