    Hey, @laura_9106. While rolling back to an early version is a solution in a way, it would help us identify the issue further if you could install the current version of Photoshop (Beta) and let me know how it goes.

     

    Thanks!

    @mkalex The original issue is related to menus freezing after using Camera Raw. Does this happen with Liquify as well? 

    Thanks!

    Yes, it does for me!

    I rebooted several times to no avail.

    I would happily go back to the previous version of photoshop, if I could!

      I was able to "fix" the issue by uninstalling and the reinstalling an earlier version of the app. This seems to be the best solution while we wait for Adobe to fix. I'm currently using photoshop 25.11 and it 's been working great.

      Agreed!
      The new phtotoshop is now usuable...
      All access to the menus disappears after using liquify.
      Please fix this ASAP...

      Running an Intel chip and Sonoma 14.6.1

      Hey all! 

       

      Would you mind testing the latest version of Photoshop (beta) from the Beta Apps section in the Creative Cloud desktop app? 

       

      If the issue exists, DM me directly with the system info from Photoshop Help > System info > Copy and paste into a text document > upload and attach here. We will continue to investigate this. 

       

      Thanks!

      Al abrir una foto RAW, todas las herramientas estan desactivadas y no se despliégan. Esto ocurre en Photoshop2025 en Mac y con fotos de formato nativo, tanto de Nikon (NEF) como de Sony (ARW). No ocurre lo mismo con los formatos JPEG en los que las herramienas se abren perfectamente.

      Esto hace que el programa quede inutilizable, pues no puedo cerarlo si no uso los atajos de teclado, que si funcionan.

      Solución, por favor!.

      Hurrah ! Yes I've uninstalled Photoshop V 26 and installed v25.11 which seems good so far . V25.12 had the same menu freeze problem. 
      Hoping for this to be fixed in v26.1

      I had a technition from Adobe on my computer for an hour last Friday They determind it was a bug and hopefully it will be fixed on the next update. The beta version 26.1 does not have the problem.
