Windows 10, 21H1

After installing PS update August 2021, I open PS, select an image, it opens but the home screen is still there behind it.

If I close the image and open a new one, PS freezes and the only way out is task manager.

Any Ideas?

Have you tried resetting your Photoshop preferences?

Go to Preferences/General and click "Reset preferences on Quit" and relaunch PS.

After the latest update, whenever i open a new document, these weird pixels appear. They stay still at the exact position, no matter i zoom in or out. Does anyone know how to fix this? I'm using Macbook Pro 16" 2019. Thanks.

Does turning on »Deactivate Native Canvas« (Photoshop > Preferences > Technology Previews) and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue? 

Does turning off »Use Graphics Processor« in the Performance Preferences (Photoshop > Preferences > Performance > Graphic Processor Settings) and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue?

Turning on Deactive Native Canvas does help fix the problem. Thanks!

I'm experiencing the same problem with Intel HD Graphics 4600 on an Intel Core i5-4310M (Windows 10 Pro 21H1). Deactivate Native Canvas seems to have solved the issue.

This problem did not reproduce on all systems here, and we had a fix that addressed the problem on the customer's systems that had the issue, so we thought we had it fixed; sorry for the inconvenience; the range of GPU hardware is vast and some combinations (that we don't have readily available to us) can exhibit issues.

@mark_dahm Same issue happening with my Windows 10 program. Running a 1070 ti graphics card. Turning off the native canvas fixed it, but I'm pretty upset that a program update could make it through testing with this large of an issue.

@JeffreyTranberry I tried both suggestions in this thread but it still doesn't work for me on my surface pro.  Can you please help me fix this?

Go into Photoshop Preferences > Technology Preview and check 'Deactivate Native Canvas', then restart Photoshop. We're investigating the issue.
