Camera Raw not working in Bridge (GPU disabled) – MacBook Pro 2024

Hi all,

I'm having issues using Camera Raw in Adobe Bridge on my MacBook Pro 2024 (Apple Silicon, fully updated macOS and Creative Cloud apps). When I try to open RAW files from Bridge, I get the message:

“Camera Raw requires GPU acceleration.”

In Camera Raw Preferences > Performance, the "Use Graphics Processor" option is grayed out and disabled, and I can't change it.

• I already tried forcing GPU via a config.lua file in ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/GPU with overridegpu = true, but it had no effect.

• I also tried giving Adobe full disk access and screen recording permissions in macOS settings.

• Deleting the GPU folder and restarting didn’t help.

• I finally uninstalled and reinstalled Camera Raw completely via Creative Cloud, and cleared all cached settings, but still no luck.
  
  

It feels like Bridge and Photoshop simply refuses to connect properly with Camera Raw, even though my system is powerful enough.

Any help would be hugely appreciated — thank you!
