Question

Camera Raw - freezes with a splash screen when I try to use Mask Icon

All tools in Camera Raw are working except when I click on the Mask icon to do anything at all it immediately seizes everything up and no way to close only through Task Manager. A Splash screen covers everyting -showing the new things in masking- but it freezes everything up.

Help Please - getting very frustrated now, done every update possible - drivers etc!

Try resetting the Camera Raw preferences.

In Photoshop, go to Edit > Preferences, then click Camera Raw with the Control key pressed.

Click Yes in the dialog that follows.

Same issue happened to me. reseeting preferences did not work. 

Absolutely frustrating. is there a solution for this from Adobe ? 

 

Note : The same happenes in lightroom 2025 as well. The moment i click mask icon, lighroom gets frozen.
