This is what "open as layers in photoshop" looks like in 27.10 and 11. Hint: EMPTY. FAIL.

Open as Layers in photoshop from LRC. Nothing happens. Broken as broken thing. This 27.11 may have partially fixed critical color bug from 27.10 but it is still unworkable. Total failure for critical commercial software. I have reported this to adobe rep a month ago, but they absolutely don’t care. Absolutely fed up.

Is one (or more) images denoised? Then that’s a known issue:

Not an issue loading 1. Why not 2 or 3 or 10?

If one out of ten images is denoised, then opening those 10 images as layers will fail because of this known bug. Opening the other nine images individually will work just fine. Hence my question (that you did not answer).

I’ve just tested it with Lightroom Classic v15.6 and Photoshop v27.11 on Windows 11 and it worked OK here. Can you give further info on the steps to try and reproduce the issue.

open multiple images as layers from LRC. Not one. Multiple. I don’t have hours to open 10 1 by 1

I just opened 10 camera raw files, each 4480 x 6720 pixels with mixed orientation. Open as layers opened each onto a new layer, of a new document measuring 6720 x 6720 ( to take into account some were landscape and some portrait) and took about 30 seconds.

Have you carried out any troubleshooting so far, such a preference reset (back them up first)?

Now that this is sitting hung up, non-responsive. Will have to kill it, then probably I will find 40GB more of dump files, just because our SSDs should be filled up while memory is that expensive
