P: PS 26.5 Droplets Could not complete the Create Droplet command because the file was not found.

When I create a droplet in Photoshop 2025, it creates a folder instead of an EXE file. What is the solution?

Please fix this problem. You are already light years behind what is happening in other companies that use AI for image creation and management. I have already canceled my Stock subscription; I sincerely wonder if I will one day leave Adobe altogether. And yet, I’ve been working with Photoshop since 1992...

Yes, the current version still doesn't work as stated in my previous post. Intall the BETA 26.11 or wait for the update to 26.11.
Current Version 26.10 = Droplet creation still broken.
BETA Release v26.11 = Droplet creation IS WORKING!

This is still broken in Photoshop, with the most current update.

Il problema persiste anche con la versione 26.10 su MacBook con MacOs Sequoia 15.5 (24F74). Ma è arrivata mail da Adobe che dice che il prezzo della creative suite aumenterà di circa 10 € al mese... ma non sono in grado di far funzionare delle funzioni ESSENZIALI per chi lavora

Hi @pierreb94 , I would double check of your droplet settings. As far as I can tell the droplets I can make now are just fine, I've tested a few now. I always get confused about when I need an open step and when to use the override action open commands checked, it's a little unintuitive IMO. But my new droplets from the BETA are working fine. Good luck!

Yes it works with beta...but it does not work. I mean : I can now create a droplet, after fixing the problem of security in MAC OS, I put an image on the icon, Photoshop is lauched but error message and impoosible to get a result.

I have an action to reduce resultion of image. I have created a droplet years ago and I know that it works perfectly. 

 

What I have done : export this action from PS2025 to BETA, check if it works in BETA >>> no problem. Create a Droplet, fix the issue in MacOS, drag an image on the droplet, BETA is open, and error message : IMAGE SIZE COMMAND IS NOT AVALAIBLE. This command is the 1st line of the action.

So, for me, the problem is half fixed...

Regards
