Issue with Adobe Photo Downloader and CFExpress Card (windows)

Since downloading Bridge 2023 update the automatic Photo Downloader has an error message of F:/Application not found.  I have a feeling I did the wrong thing and deleted the previous versions of Bridge before downloading the current version.  I think that Bridge is trying to search for the downloader application from the F: (card reader) drive rather than where Bridge itself is stored i.e. the C: drive.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Sorry = photography is my thing and not computers yikes.

Thank you for reaching out to us.

To better investigate the issue, could you please share the following information:
1. Is your auto play setting set to download/view image in Bridge when you insert a removable drive?

2. What is the model of your card and card reader?

3. Are you able to launch Photo Downloader from Bridge?

 

Please note - Photo Downloader not launching automatically when you insert a removable drive is a known issue and team is investigating the same. You can still use Photo Downloader to import your images by following the steps.

1. Open Bridge

2. From the File menu, select Get Photos from Camera... or you can click on the camera icon in the top menu bar to launch Photo Downloader
