Camera Raw 18.4.1 GPU acceleration not supported after update!!

Hi,

After updating to Camera Raw 18.4.1, GPU acceleration stopped working.

I'm using:

  • Photoshop 27.8.0
  • Camera Raw 18.4.1
  • Windows 10 22H2
  • Intel UHD Graphics 620

Everything was working fine before the update.

Now Camera Raw shows:

 

"Camera Raw graphics acceleration is not supported by your system."

 

The Use Graphics Processor option is locked to Off.

I already tried:

  • Updating the Intel graphics driver.
  • Resetting Camera Raw GPU settings.
  • Recreating the CameraRaw and GPU folders.
  • Reinstalling Camera Raw.

Nothing helped.

Has anyone experienced the same issue after updating to 18.4.1?

Thanks!

    I have the same issue. Camera Raw in Photoshop shows the same. In Lightroom Classic it works fine.

    I updated Nvidia Studio drivers

    Reset GPU Settings

    Cleaned the GPU Settings in the GPU Folder

    Reinstalled Camera Raw

    Reinstalled Photoshop

    Before the update i had no problems

    My System

    Win 11 Pro 25H2

    Nvidia RTX 3060

    Photoshop 27.8.0

    Camera Raw 18.4.1
