HiSince the last update of Photoshop to the current version, I've noticed a very high RAM consumption. According to my research on the internet, I'm not the only one with this problem. Compared to PS 26.11.6, 27.8.0 consumes twice as much RAM, without even loading a single image. Both versions are configured identically, with the same actions, plugins, etc.Immediately after starting PS, it occupies about 11.5 GB of RAM in 2026, but only 5 GB in 2025. If I load the same photo, which contains layers etc., in both versions, then 2026 occupies 13.9 GB, and the 2025 version occupies 7 GB.Kind regardsHans-Joerg Fritsch Attached are the system information determined via PS 2026.

this version makes Photoshop not work on Ventura anymore. At least mark it as “not compatible” instead of making me download an app that just refuses to boot
Hi, after a recent Photoshop or macOS update, I noticed a problem with Save As on Mac.When I open a PSD file and use Save As, the filename field shows the current file name with the .psd extension. If I replace the whole filename with a new name, for example testname, and keep Format: Photoshop selected, Photoshop saves the file without the .psd extension.So the saved file is:testnameinstead of:testname.psdThis did not happen before. Since the format is set to Photoshop, I would expect Photoshop to automatically add .psd.Adobe Photoshop Version: 27.2.0 20251213.r.15 e3408e7 arm64 (final, Release) Number of Launches: 654 Operating System: Mac OS 26.5.1 System architecture: Apple M3 Pro, DOTPROD, HybridCPU(6:6)
Since Microsoft Intune was installed on my Windows 11 machine, PhotoShop, InDesign and Premiere Pro regularly freeze for 20 to 30 seconds. During this time the applications do nothing but I can switch to a browser or email client and use those just fine. Once the Adobe app ‘recovers’, it continues to work fine for another few minutes, at which point in time it will freeze again for 20 to 30 seconds.Task Manager shows no excessive CPU load during these freezes. There is still plenty of spare RAM available on the 64BG i7 portable.As I already said, all the Adobe applications that I use do this, but I spend the most time using Photoshop. The freezes are very annoying and sometimes force me to redo actions that were interrupted. Tips and tricks to resolve this are appreciated. Our own IT team cannot fix it and claims no one else in the company has this specific issue.
In Photoshop 2026 UXP, batchPlay duplicate document returns [{_obj:"error", result:-128}] inside executeAsModalI am developing a Photoshop UXP plugin. In Photoshop 2025, duplicating the current document via batchPlay or Document.duplicate works. In Photoshop 2026, the same command returns [{ _obj: "error", message: "", result: -128 }] even inside executeAsModal.Recorded command from Alchemist:await batchPlay([ { _obj: "duplicate", _target: [{ _ref: "document", _enum: "ordinal", _value: "first" }], documentID: 59, _options: { dialogOptions: "dontDisplay" } }], {});This works when replayed manually, but inside my plugin workflow it returns -128 and no new document is created.Questions:1. Did Photoshop 2026 change restrictions around duplicating documents from UXP plugins?2. Is document duplicate blocked in some modal/plugin contexts?3. Should plugins use core.createTemporaryDocument instead?4. If createTemporaryDocument is used, how can we access layers or use it as a norma
I had to reinstall Photoshop yesterday and now my computer is telling me that I already have it installed on 2 computers and if I don't deactivate one of them I won't be abel to use it. I only have it installed on one computer and I just reinstalled it on that one. My deactivate button wasn't available. I can't contact anyone at adobe. Please help.

Color Mechanic (plug in filename is ColorMechanic2-64.8bf) is a plugin that's not been supported for several years. However, I have receently installed it on another Windows 11 machine running Photoshop 2025 and it works fine. However, when I first try to use it (Filters>Digital Light & Color>Color Mechanic), it prompts me to enter the activation key. Before I can do that, the activation window disappears and Photoshop locks up. Is there a reason this plugin won't work in PS 2026? I had no trouble activating it on machines running earlier versions of Photoshop.
Is there any way I can download all my Photoshop Cloud files to my desktop? Either from the Creative Cloud App or from the Web. Please Help!!
Every so often I run into a situation where I've created a full bleed design but when I go to set it up to print I realize that I forgot to include the bleed area past the trim line. Where this is especially annoying is when it is a photograph or piece of art that I don't really want to enlarge to account for the bleed.A work around is copying and then reflecting the image on each edge and butting it up against the trim line. Also, you can generative fill the bleed area. Both of those tactics work, but they are annoying.It would be awesome if there was a simple button to press where you said "create bleed" and you could set the size of the bleed you wanted and AI would just generate the bleed for you without any fuss. This would have to be in Photoshop.Maybe this is just a me problem, lol, but we have the technology!!
I'm using the latest Photoshop 2025 (as well as the latest suite of other products) on a Windows 10 laptop. I use Adobe Camera RAW and then Photoshop to edit RAW files. Often, I want to rename a directory where I've saved files to. However, even when I completely exit out of Photoshop, Windows will not allow me to rename the folder, as it claims it is in use. And, yes, when I try to rename the folder, I don't have any files opened within it, and aren't otherwise in it. The only solution is to reboot. Why the heck is Adobe holding onto the folder locks after I exit the program, and how can I prevent this from happening in the future?
When I open Photoshop the camera raw filter either only works one time or not at all. In beta it used to work just fine now it does the same thing. I have reset preferences several times, same problems.
I have the following error message from the Photo restoration neural filter It seems specific to this image which I think is an ideal candidate.

I should not be charged for AI services nor will i pay just to use them. If it was an actual person on the other side of the screen I would say charge me but it's a replacement for a person that also isn't as good as a person. not to mention it's just a combination of a bunch of peoples work and words
Enable generator is checked off in Preferences so I'm not sure what else to do. I work in photoshop all day for an in-house corporation I really can't afford to be missing this. Please help!
Add the ability for us to pan around the canvas using the middle mouse button. It's more time saving to use it compared to going for the spacebar since your hand is already on the mouse. We have been asking for this feature for over 10 years. We shouldn't have to look for third party software or buy gaming mice with programable buttons to jerry rig something close enough at this point. Some people can't use normal/gaming mice anyways due to injury or disability so we're locked out of those options. Last I checked you have this canvas panning feature in After Effects. Why introduce super useful features, but keep them exclusive to only one of your apps? I've noticeed this so many times on different Adobe programs it's honestly annoying..
I need a current answer to this question for Mac OS 11. I just set up a new computer, and Adobe "helpfully" installed scores of completely-useless-to-me profiles (various camera types, etc) that I have to scroll through, in order to get to the handful that I actually use. I need to get these things off my system (or, at the very least, group them together at the bottom of the list, somehow) in order to not have my workflow grind to a halt, having to scroll through all of this stuff I did not want or ask for. Please help! They are not in the ColorSync folder in LIbrary, btw. I've looked everywhere
Tried saving a file using save as and save optimised but can't paste copied text from clipboard or any other text?
The “@” sign is very working in Effra CC Variable in Photoshop. The screenshot resembles an Photoshop window with at sign at maximum size with Medium weight. The document shows other fonts: “Museo Sans, Gibson, DIN 2014, Aktiv Grotesk” with heavy weights.
Is there a way to disable this. I know it is a Windows feature for navigating without a mouse but who really uses PS without a mouse. If I start to do a key command and press alt then realize I want to do something else I have to hit Escape. If I don't hit escape menus start to drop down when I try to use my tools. I can not stand this navigation feature and it has been bugging me for years. If I remember correctly the Mac version of photoshop does not have this.
When working with images (png., jpg., tiff etc) I no longer see thumbnails of the images in the directory I am working in. If I open the image and do some work on it and then do a Save as, move to the directory I want to save in I still do not see any thumbnails of the images in the directory, only generic icons. I have not changed any settings in Photoshop so don’t know what has happened.
PS 27.8.0An error message pops immediately upon choosing the local device option for Remove Tool processing.GPU has 12 (just under 12) of ram on the card which is higher than listed requirements for this.Checked sys info and PS sees the GPU’s ram so I’m not sure where the disconnect is in the ram check sparking this error. Attached. screenshot showing error message and portion of sys info scrolled to gpu data seen.
I have used the generative fill for a long time and never had this issue before, and now its doing it every time on all projects. If I use generative fill to either remove or create, the resulting layer has a halo. If I merge or flatten, or even save it as a jpeg and open it as a separate file, the halo is still there and can’t be removed. I’ve tried to erase it, clone stamp it, no matter what the result ALWAYS has a halo that moves with the tool. I’ve attached a video of a real quick ugly example (not me doing good work, just illustrating the problem). Any help is appreciated.
Hi there. Hoping someone may have a fix to this issue. Since installing Adobe Photoshop 2025 (Version 26.1.0), all but two of the printer profiles have disappeared from my printer profile options. I've currently been exporting as a high quality PNG and printing them through illustrator, but this is inconvenient. I've spent hours of googling and even reached out to Adobe tech chat, which annoyingly enough, the person I was talk to ended the chat with no contect after about 30 minutes. I did find that if I copy my ICC file from the spool/drivers folder and place it in c:\users\username\appdata\roaming\adobe\color\settings, the speceific ICC profile and all the missing usual ones return. BUT THEN, they all disappear from Illustrator and I can't get them back there either. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This has been driving me insane the last couple of days. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled both Photoshop and Illustrator a couple of times. Didn't work. I also u
