Hello
unfortunately when I try to open Camera Raw 2024 from Bridge it doesn't work. I already updated everything and it still doesn't work. I also tried to open Camera Raw from photoshop and it still doesn't work.
Does anyone have any clues what I can do ?

@Juan Daniel35131905vxsx  If it is the files you show in your screen-clip:

Then, PNG files are not 'raw' files. They do not need or use Camera Raw. They should open directly to a Photoshop document in the same way a JPG, TIF, or PSD file will.

You can use the Camera Raw FILTER when the PNG images open in Photoshop .  (The CR FILTER is not the same as ACR for raw files, although they look similar.)

 

Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.0, Photoshop 27.0, ACR 18.0, Lightroom 9.0, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0 .

Can you give full details of Bridge and Photoshop versions you are using?

You could try looking in Bridge Preferences>General and select the option "Double click opens in Camera Raw"

(Wording is different on Mac and Windows.)

This should allow opening of files directly from Bridge to Camera Raw without having to open Photoshop. (Camera Raw can be hosted by Bridge or by Photoshop.) Ctrl+R or Cmd+R does the same.

Please elaborate upon "doesn't work"

That could mean a miriad things.

When I'm in Bridge it doesn't let me open Camera Raw and the tabs appear unavailable, neither does it appear in the options to import photos to camera raw.

In photoshop it just keeps loading the camera raw image and never opens it.
