Photoshop 2026 will not open

Photoshop 2026 will not open. It starts to boot but then just disappears/crashes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times. I have tried starting and holding ctrl/alt/shift. I have tried closing all the adobe related programs in Task Manager. This is infuriating while trying to work with clients. Can anybody shine any light on this for me?

Photoshop Actions Disappeared? How to Recover Lost Actions and Fix Reset Errors

This has happened before - I open Photoshop and I get the error message that PS couldn’t load the actions and then they are now gone. Please tell me there is a way of recovering these. I generally back them up every month or so, but I had just created a couple of new actions last week and I haven’t backed those up.(I am so sick and tired of this program glitching and either dumping the actions or dumping my keyboard shortcuts that I have set. I have saved my custom workspace before and EVEN THAT is getting dumped at random, for no reason.)

TIFF has disappeared from the dropdown format menu in the Save As... dialog boxOpen for Voting

Updated to 27.11 this morning. Mac Studio M1 Max 64 GB RAM Tahoe 26.6.2.I have had only the 4 main file formats (psd, tif, jpg, psb) selected in my dropdown ever since the feature to edit them went live. After upgrading to 27.11 TIF no longer appears in the dropdown.Went to the format selection tool (Edit → customize save dialog file formats) and check to see that TIF was still selected as one of the formats. It was. Unselected and then reselected it, no change.Workaround so far is to use the restore defaults setting in the customize tool. Then TIFF reappears in the many options in save as dialogs

Recorded Guide Layouts in Actions no longer update when a new version is released

We use a lot of action sets for work and I need to move them between computers. Previously, when i would record a script or a Guide Layout in a PS action, as long as i put them in /Applications/Adobe Photoshop 2026/Presets/Guides, they would only display the name and not the exact path. This meant when I updated PS versions, the guides and scripts would relink seamlessly. This is no longer the case. Now my options are to re-record opening the script, load the preset, make one small change, then change it back, then press OK. This records the values but i lose the visual name of the custom guide showing in my action set. ALTERNATIVELY, i have to re-record the guide to the newest version location (which means i’d have to do that each time i update). Storing the guides outside of that location opens up a can of worms for when i move these action sets to another computer. Anyone have tips? Is this a bug?

Photoshop stopped working

Photoshop stopped working . I have updated to v27.11. Photoshops starts opening and then disappears with an error message that flashed and disapears. It is clear from Adobe users that this is a general problem. PLease fix it.

Point Color - Port to PhotoshopOpen for Voting

With some features of ACR now making into Photoshop, I would also like to see Point Color port too.I've been using Point Color (as a Camera Raw Smart Filter), a lot recently for fine edits to match test (printed) proofs to physical beauty products, and found it very useful.I would love to see 'the technology' ported to Photoshop, as its ability to define a source pixel colour range is much better than what PS currently has to offer.However, the ability to define the target colour value is what would make it worth it.As someone who works in Print, I would love it to pick and change CMYK values too!

rotate the axis of transform control box.Open for Voting

when using object transform to stretch, sheet, or skew a layer, the axis of refrence for the transform control box is locked in on the X/Y axis. now if you rotate the object, the axis of the transform control box will rotate with the object, but only until you confim the transform at which point it resets. This means that if you rotate a perfect square to be sitting at 45 degree angle, you can stretch it on a 45 degree axis into a perfect rectangle on a 45 degrees if its donew in only one transform. The issue is that after you confirm the transform, or if you have an object already at an angle you want to stretch on an angle, there is no simple built in way to rotate the angle of the transform box to match the angle of the layer/selection being transformed. This functionality is a basic necessity in all 3D modeling apps so I'm pretty surprised it hasnt been added to photoshop in the 15 years ive been using it. Before people start suggesting to just use smart shapes or some smart object

In Photoshop the remove tool does not work. It suggests I connect to the internet but I am connected and not using a VPN. This seems to be pretty persistent and is causing me some serious issues.

When I make a selection and choose “remove” Photoshop takes a long time to consider and then informs me I need to check my internet connection. My computer (Mac M4 Max) is up to date and has sufficient RAM and I have strong stable internet connection. This problem seems to be pretty persistent. Other AI options seem to be working but remove isn’t.

Photoshop 27.11 正式版全新 Bug 驗收：畫布色彩已修正，但「首頁縮圖色彩溢位」與「第 41 行 Error 44 腳本錯誤」依然完全沒修！各位好，我是 Windows 11 平台的高階專業攝影用戶。得知官方釋出 Photoshop v27.11 正式發行版（Build: 20260929.r.26 8c16e56）後，我第一時間使用專業廣色域硬體進行了實機驗收。雖然這次更新確實修正了 Camera Raw (ACR 18.7) 轉入 Photoshop 畫布時的「GPU 色彩轉譯矩陣錯誤」（目前畫布內 Adobe RGB 紅色通道溢位已大幅改善，兩邊顏色趨於相近）。但在這份正式 Release 版中，我先前詳細回報並被官方記錄的另外兩項重大核心 Bug，竟然原封不動地被遺留，整合測試令人極度失望：Bug 1. 自動堆疊功能依然癱瘓（Error 44 腳本錯誤未修）問題現象：當我點選上方選單『檔案 > 自動 > 將檔案載入堆疊』時，主程式依舊跳出：「Error: 錯誤 44: 無法轉換。直線: 41 -> $.evalFile(g_StackScriptFolderPath + "StackSupport.jsx");」。觀測結論：這可能是自動化腳本小組在修復代碼後在最後合併時遺漏、沒有被打包進 27.11 正式安裝檔中。 Bug 2. 首頁預覽縮圖色彩管理依然崩潰問題現象：如我附帶的對比截圖，同一個 Nikon Z5 II 的 .NEF 檔案，在 Adobe Bridge（圖四）裡讀取的朝霞色彩極其純正、過渡完全正常；然而一旦顯示在 Photoshop 27.11 的首頁『最近使用』列表中（圖三），預覽縮圖竟然依舊是一片死紅、死橘的嚴重過載渲染災難。觀測結論：這鐵證如山！Photoshop 主程式首頁的快取生成模組，至今依然在圖省事、強行套用窄小的 sRGB 解碼，並直接硬推（Force Stretch）到我的廣色域螢幕上，完全漏掉了在 Windows 廣色域硬體下應調用（Call）色彩管理 Function 的底層邏輯。 💻 實機測試之系統與硬體環境資訊：Photoshop 版本： 27.11.0 20260929.r.26 8c16e56 x64 (Final, Release) 作業系統： Windows

Am i out of luck if i need to reset my computer?

Hi all,I recently the blue screen of death on my computer. Thought that i created a restore point the day before installing CS6, but nothing was found.. I guess, i’m wondering if i’m down to 1 computer that i can use now? No way to remotely remove dead computers? Nothing shows up in my active devices in my account. If i am sol.. This sucks. We paid a lot of money for our copies of CS, that are legit and not pirated. Yet we can’t install it locally or remove devices that we can’t physically deactivate them on? I could go on this rant for days, if i understand correctly that you get 2 devices and then your key is no longer good, and you have no ability to remove dead computers.. I own my copy, at the same time i don’t own my copy? wtf??… -_-;; Anyway, any clear answer on if i’m sol on that device would be helpful, or if there’s a way to activate the full version locally since it pushes you to login after typing in the key.

camera raw crashes PS

Photoshop cannot open TIFFs without crashing — this needs engineering attentionEvery TIFF I have tested opens in Camera Raw—even with TIFF handling disabled—and Photoshop crashes when I choose Open, Done, or Cancel. This affects both regular Photoshop and Photoshop Beta on my machine.My configuration: Photoshop 27.10.0; Camera Raw 18.7, build 2743 MacBook Pro, Apple M1, 16 GB memory macOS 15.7.5 My processor, memory, and operating system meet Adobe’s published Camera Raw requirements. Updates, reinstalls, preference resets, and the suggested TIFF-handling and GPU workarounds have not resolved this.On September 15, an Adobe community manager acknowledged an investigation into Photoshop 27.10 unexpectedly routing TIFFs through Camera Raw despite TIFF handling being disabled. That acknowledgment concerns the TIFF-routing behavior; my additional failure is the crash when leaving Camera Raw.Please escalate this to engineering and provide a tracking reference, an actionable workaround or

When open three DNG files and select them all click AI Denoise it sets value to 50 when finished.Next i click ai denoise with all three images selected and change value from 50 to 25 and photoshop is crashing, when i select only one file and apply 25 it works fine no crash.If i select all three files and change from 50 to 25 then quickly press Tab key to switch away from the field before update starts then no crash.Sounds like problem with logic.

Proposal for Native CMYKOGVW (Extended Gamut + White Ink) Support in Adobe PhotoshopOpen for Voting

Adobe Photoshop remains the industry standard for image editing and print production workflows. However, the packaging, label, and commercial printing industries are rapidly adopting Extended Gamut and multi-channel production technologies that go beyond traditional CMYK printing.Modern production environments increasingly utilize: Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black, Orange, Green, Violet, WhiteWhile Photoshop supports Spot Channels and Multichannel documents, these additional inks are not handled as native process channels. This results in:additional manual work increased production complexity loss of non-destructive editing higher risk of production errors limitations in modern print workflowsOnce Orange, Green, Violet and White are managed as Spot Channels:Adjustment Layers become limited Smart Objects lose flexibility Color corrections become more complicated Late-stage revisions require additional work Flattening often becomes necessaryWhite Ink is no longer a special effect.

Why does Photoshop NOT release file locks after I close them?

This behavior is EXTREMELY annoying and is one of the reasons I use Affinity Photo application instead of Photoshop.  There is absolutely NOT reason to keep a file lock on a file that I have closed from Photoshop.  When I close a file, the file lock should be released, not doing so if violating Microsoft best practices. Don't even start to suggest this is for "better performance" due to poor coding ethics/techniques. The ONLY way to release the lock on the file is to exit Photoshop complete and wait about 2-5 minutes for it to release the lock.  This IS NOT acceptable and violates just about every coding best pratices that exists over the past 40 years (I'm a senior software engineer, so I do know coding best practices).

ai generative image repeated resultOpen for Voting

Dear Adobe Photoshop Team,I am a professional architectural and hospitality photographer, and I would like to suggest a feature that could significantly improve the Generative AI workflow for photographers working with multiple images of the same scene.The idea is to allow users to reuse a previously generated AI result across a sequence of photographs, while automatically adapting it to different camera angles and perspectives.For example, imagine photographing a hotel dining area from several angles. Using Generative Fill, I might add a beautifully arranged breakfast to a table in the first photograph.Currently, generating the same breakfast in another photograph can produce completely different food, plates, glasses, and arrangements, even when using exactly the same prompt.Ideally, Photoshop could offer a "Reuse Previous Generation" or "Generation Consistency" option.This could work through a simple checkbox or a generation history panel, allowing users to: Select a previously gene

AI generating bleed area beyond trim lineOpen for Voting

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!!

Crop Tool Program Error 1a2d9a.308

For about 4 months now, I intermittently receive a program error when trying to crop an image imported from ACR.I’ve reinstalled PS, updated Windows and NVidia graphics software, reset the Crop Tool, and unchecked the Graphics Processor option in Preferences...nothing has fixed the problem.It doesn’t appear to be related to AI enhanced images as my files have had only exposure corrections and come as files directly from Adobe Camera Raw. It has become more frequent, and I’m currently unable to crop any image without an error code which renders the images blank upon saving.Please fix this or advise a solution. Photoshop is becoming completely unusable at this point.
