P: Shake Reduction crashes

Definitely 2014 was the best version. Why can't they add new features as plugins? I'd love to use 2014 with the new Content Aware interface. Boom, done. No more slow brushes, no more crashes.

It's becoming increasingly difficult to rely on adobe updates, which are forced when collaborating with other people. I'd much prefer NOT adding features that are broken. So much time wasted in trying to sort out issues that it makes me wish I kept my 2014 version

Can you add me to the list too ... pretty much the same as everyone else. No communication ... Constant crashing.

I would file a crash report (I keep trying) but the system still refuses to recognize the email address that it uses to send me Photoshop Family (and everything else from Adobe) or the private address Jeff gave me.

The .3 version also crashed for me, and a crash report was filed.

Both 20.0.1 and .2  crashed often when running Shake Reduction. I followed Jeff Tranberry's advice and updated the graphics drivers (NVida on one computer, AMD on another) and there are still crashes, but far fewer. I see Adobe has .3 ready for me to download and install ("to address serious bugs reported ..." ). We'll see if this is one of them when I get my courage screwed to the sticking post (Macbeth). 

I couldn't even get Photoshop 2019 20.0.2 to load without crashing. So I reinstalled Win 10 on formatted disk, and 1st thing after it was loaded, was to install Adobe Photoshop.

It would launch, but then I noticed the terrible Free Transform and Crop Tools. Then the crashing from Shake Reduction. While I do like the updated Content Aware Fill, I use Shake Reduction more. It doesn't crash 100%, but I would say maybe 70% or so.

Last solid version was PS 2014, and that's just sad. As I've been saying since the start of the CC line, we are nothing buy Alpha Testers. I wish PS was ALL Plug-In, so we could mix and match solid working parts, and pull out poorly conceived modules.

I still have absolutely no idea why my Shake Reduction isn't crashing, since it appears to happen on Macs with nVidia, not just AMD users who first posted. Maybe because my laptop is a bit elderly, and so is my video card, obviously?

Have just experienced multiple super agonizing crashes! What is going on?

I went back to the 2018 version. No issues there. I don’t have time to mess with 2019. No times waste editing a photo then have it crash and loose all your edits.
