P: Photoshop creates a gude log while working with files

This isn't a solution. All you're doing is hiding the files so you can't see them. The solution is for Adobe to fix the problem they introduced with this bug.

still getting this same issue in 24.1.1

Just for the record this is [removed by moderator] on the part of Abobe... I think this is the easiest fastest way to "fix" this issue.

1. Open the folder containing your images

2. Double click and image

3. Right click on the newly created GUDE-LOG file

4. Click Properties then check the box next to Hidden

5. Click Apply then Ok

6. Repete steps 1-5 anywhere else the GUDE-LOG file appears.  You should only have to do this a couple times in different places depending on how many file types and locations you use.

I am also having issues when creating a duplicate layer and using Camera Raw to add a Vignette, the Vignette doesnt show on the new layer and if it does I cant use transparency ....

I am also getting this log file issue:

Tommy Kruse's idea worked when I just tried it - Open Photoshop, then open your image files.

I'm kind of wondering why the issue has persisted since April 2022, and why it all of the sudden tonight.

I am also getting gude log files every time I save a file, these things are all over my computer, please help!

I thought it was a virus somewhere! No, it's just Adobe.

Does Adobe really have such bad programmers that this giant company can't fix this bug?
Or, worse, are they just screwing us customers?

We work with deadlines every day and these log files are everywhere and are also attached to our picture deliveries to newspapers. Give us customers feedback now, please.

The easiest is to open Photoshop before you start working on pictures, open photoshop, THEN doubleclick the picture(s) you need to edit.

That's the easiest way to avoid getting the gude-file in your picture folders.

The creation of GUDE text files started happening to me today. Tried all of the fixes suggested online, nothing works.
