As the title says, I'm trying to use the new AI remove tool after removing some people using the Generative Fill tool, as the ai generated grass is usually more accurate when using Remove. This is something I have been doing since the remove tool came out, and it has worked without error until last week. Now, whenever I have used generative fill on an image, and I attempt to use the AI Remove tool, Photoshop says "Could not complete your request because of a program error", regardless of whether my selection includes the area where Generative Fill was used. I get the same result if I rasterise the Gen Fill layer, or if I flatten the image. However, if I undo the Gen Fill, or open a new image without any Gen Fill used on it, the Remove tool will work as it is supposed to. The file type does not seem to matter, as I have tried .dng, .psd, .png and .jpg and got the same results for all.   My question is, why might this be happening? Is it deliberate choice by adobe, or an uninte

I recently updated to the Adobe Photoshop Version: 27.9.1 20260803.r.1 65900e1  x64 (final, Release). Once I import an image and I use the Clone Stamp Tool, it doesn't work as it used to. I use Alt+Click to select an area to clone, but then, when I click on a target to clone on, it uncontrollably clones other areas of the image, at a linear manner. I haven't seen such a behavior before. 

Will not load, happened after PS upgrade.

Tried to use this feature today (worked fin in previous version of PS) and today, after upgrading to ver 27, I get the "We've temporarily disable this feature because of an error" message. Of course I don't know what that error is, but pretty sure it's an error.    Running Windows 11 25H2 build 26200.7019 AMD Ryzen 7 7000AMD 6600X 8G (latest drivers)

Bonjour,Quand j'utilise l'Outil Correcteur Localisé en cliquant avec ma souris sur une zone de la photo à l’écran, une multitude de lignes partent dans tous les sens. Donc cet outil ne fonctionne plus depuis plusieurs jours. Est-ce un bug ?

SECOND TIME, BUT ON A DIFFERENT COMPUTER.Today I attempted an update to PS 2026 which was probably at 27.7.  While updating it froze at 51%  with the message that it was taking an unusually long time and....  After waiting over an hour I canceled the update, closed all apps and restarted my computer.  Then tried to open PS and got this message.Also here is detail from Finder: This is on my Macbook Pro apple silicon with Tahoe 26.6.Less than a month ago the exact same thing happened on my Apple Studio and current OS.  Then, with costly outside support, I had to use CC cleaner and reload, etc with all the hassle that entails.  ADOBE:  PLEASE FIX THIS.  Otherwise how many times do I have to reload etc?QUESTION.  Do I have to use Creative Cloud Cleaner or is there a more efficient way like simply uninstalling PS and then reinstalling it.  

When using the Image/Adjustments/Vibrance of an image, the preview is not updating.  I’ve tried unchecking, and rechecking the preview toggle, but it doesn’t adjust.  This has been to case for the last two beta versions.    Currently running Photoshop Beta - 27.11.0 Release. Not a big deal, but wanted to let you know. Image Preview is not updating.This is the result I was expecting with the Preview.Here is my system info: Windows Info:Edition    Windows 11 Pro Insider PreviewVersion    26H2Installed on    ‎8/‎1/‎2026Evaluation expires on    ‎10/‎31/‎2027 4:43 PMOS build    26300.9032Experience    Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.26100.431.0 Device Info:Device name    NyesBeast ABS Gaming PCProcessor    Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-14900KF (3.20 GHz)Installed RAM    32.0 GB (31.8 GB usable)Graphics card    NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti (16 GB)Storage    1.64 TB of 7.28 TB usedDevice ID    10461025-DF19-47F3-91F7-147D8F3A390EProduct ID    00330-81627-68506-AA249System type    64-bit operating s

Rotate object is like a miracle EXCEPT that it glitches out on me. After I apply the rotation, the rotated object “enhances”, and then when it’s finished it glitches out like this - rainbow bars. Using a Surface Pro 11th edition running Windows 11  version 25H2Photoshop 27.9.1

After the latest update the Remove tool is no longer working for me. Even when I click on a tiny area on the same layer it results in a programm error. When I disable AI, it works but the results are terrible for larger areas.I have already increase the available RAM to 12 GB, deleted the cache and the preferences, checked the GPU compatibility, switched the Remove toool to More Stable  and tried unchecking GPU. None these worked.OS Windows 11 Photoshop 27.9.1 in German 

Issue summary: Since Photoshop 2025 (exact version unknown, but after 25.12.4) direction-based brush strokes, when set in the brush settings (Shape Dynamics - Angle Jitter - Direction), are not working properly. The very first 'pixel' of nearly every stroke is angled about 90 degrees perpendicular, before correcting itself immediately as the stroke continues. This breaks a previously working workflow. The problem is only mitigated by using external stabilisation (I’m using Lazy Nezumi Pro with light smoothing), which suggests the issue is related to how initial pen input samples are handled at stroke start. I also ideally need to have 1% smoothing enabled in Photoshop, or the bug can lightly reoccur occasionally. Using older Photoshop versions avoids the issue, but this is not a viable long-term solution due to other compatibility and stability concerns. I have used these brushes for years with no issues until recently.Product and version: 25.12.4. (laptop) the bug does not occur in th

Expected: Content-Aware Crop should use pixels from the original image as sampling material, but only generate/fill pixels in the newly expanded canvas area.Actual: In Photoshop 27.9.1, Content-Aware Crop also modifies and blends pixels inside the original image bounds. This can distort products/models near the crop boundary. In professional retouching this is destructive because original product pixels must remain unchanged.This behavior appears to have changed after a recent Photoshop update. Previous versions did not modify the original image area in the same workflow. 

Adobe Photoshop Version: 27.4.0 2Operating System: Windows 10 64-bit When I go to Image → Canvas Size, the default is always pixels. I want it to be inches. Note: I have checked in preferences, units and measures, and the default is inches. Also when I go to image → Image size, the default is in fact inches, which is what I expect.  Is the default unit for image → canvas size now different? Is there a different place to set it?  thanks

I have several M1 Macs—from Mac mini to iMac—and they all have the same issue. Whenever I open Photoshop, Illustrator, or InDesign, even if I don’t do anything, WindowServer will jump to around 80–90% GPU usage. Once I start working with files, even just opening a single image, the whole system becomes choppy and starts dropping frames, with GPU usage almost maxed out.But : if I switch the app to full-screen with menu bar mode (press F), the window shadows disappear, GPU usage drops back to normal, and everything runs smoothly—even with large files open. This makes it pretty clear the issue is related to how window shadows are being handled in macOS 26 and how it interacts with Adobe apps.It’s been months since Adobe 26 came out, and I’ve been waiting for updates to fix this, but even the latest versions still haven’t solved it. At this point, I’m wondering if it’s even fixable.M1 Macs are not that old—most Mac minis and iMacs from around 2021–2022 are still M1, so they’re definitely n

OS: Windows 11 Versions: All version of PS after 2022 (as far as I cant tell).   While the drawing/painting with the Brushes panel open, it will sometimes flicker to a white image. The brushes disappear, and this image is seen:   Reproduction: Make strokes with various brushes. (I'm using a Wacom tablet.) This seems to occur most when switching to a new brush. However it is somewhat random. You may have to try mulitple brushes for 2-3 minutes before it appears.  Sometimes it happens right away, while sometimes it is less frequent. 

SummaryA regression was introduced between Photoshop 27.4 and Photoshop 27.5 affecting Adobe Fonts integration.Starting with Photoshop 27.5, Photoshop permanently displays a fixed set of Adobe Fonts in the font picker, even when those fonts are not synchronized.The issue is isolated to Photoshop and does not occur in Illustrator, InDesign, or other Adobe applications.The regression is still present in the latest Photoshop release (27.8.x) and in Photoshop Beta.EnvironmentOperating SystemWindows 11 (clean installation)Adobe Applications TestedPhotoshop 27.4.x → Works correctly Photoshop 27.5.x → Regression introduced Photoshop 27.8.x → Issue persists Photoshop Beta → Issue persists Illustrator → Works correctly InDesign → Works correctlyCreative Cloud DesktopLatest available versionAdobe FontsEnabled only for manually synchronized fontsExpected BehaviorPhotoshop should display:Locally installed fonts.

Hi Adobe Photoshop team,my name is Gianpiero Veronio. I use Photoshop regularly for graphic and cover-art work, and while working on a recent project I noticed a reproducible geometry/rendering issue with the Line Tool.I was able to reproduce the behavior consistently, so I prepared a short report with screenshots and technical notes in case it may be useful to the Photoshop engineering team.Issue summaryWhen a dashed stroke and an arrowhead are used together on a Line shape, the line becomes visibly tilted even though the Transform rotation remains at 0.00°.Steps to reproduceCreate a line as a Shape using the Line Tool. Set the stroke width to 10 px. Apply a dashed stroke. Make sure the line rotation is exactly 0.00°. Enable an arrowhead on the line.Actual resultThe dashed line becomes visibly inclined while the Transform panel still reports 0.00° rotation.Expected resultAdding an arrowhead should affect the arrowhead geometry only. A line at 0.00° rotation should remain horizontal.I

I just updated my Photoshop this morning to version 27.9.0 and now, no matter what file format or options I use to export an image, the export appears washed out or sun-bleached.On a Reddit, I found the solution (posted 11 hours ago, very much in the same timeframe as I began experiencing it), which is to go into Preferences, under Performance, and uncheck Use Graphics Processor:https://www.reddit.com/r/photoshop/comments/1vak5kj/photoshop_update_and_now_my_images_look_washed/This should definitely be fixed. Thanks so much.

Hello,I have encountered what appears to be a GPU-related rendering bug when converting RGB images to CMYK in Photoshop.SystemPhotoshop 27.8 macOS Tahoe 26.5.2 Mac Studio M2 Ultra Apple Silicon GPUProblemWhenever GPU acceleration is enabled, converting an RGB image to CMYK produces severe black rendering artifacts across the image. The artifacts appear immediately after the color conversion and make the document unusable.The issue occurs with multiple images and is fully reproducible on my system.Steps to ReproduceOpen an RGB image. Make sure Use Graphics Processor is enabled under Preferences > Performance. Convert the document to CMYK (either Image > Mode > CMYK Color or Edit > Convert to Profile). Large black artifacts appear throughout the image.Expected ResultThe RGB image should convert normally to CMYK without any visual corruption.Actual ResultThe converted image contains large black rendering artifacts that were not present in the original RGB document.WorkaroundDi

Using Save As Photoshop PDF, I was able to save PDFs above 50,000 pixels wide yesterday using 27.8.After updating to 27.9.1 this morning I could no longer save a Photoshop PDF above approximately30,000 pixels wide  (Photoshop PDF was no longer an option in the dropdown). After reverting back to 27.8 I can now save PDFs from files over 50,000 pixels wide again.
