Question

Camera Raw opening RAW photo in lower quality

Hello! I'm editing some RAW photos and I noticed that Camera Raw opens a bad version of the RAW files. When I open it on windows it first loads like a a thumbnail version, and after a few seconds it loads the fully detailed version. What happens is that Camera Raw seems to load that first version of it, and changing the profile doesn't solve the issue. What am I doing wrong?

 

Below are some screenshots: the first one is the photo before and the second one is the photo after fully loading. The last one is how it appears in Camera Raw.

Try resetting the Camera Raw preferences:
Hold down the Command key and select Photoshop > Preferences > Camera Raw (macOS*) or hold down the Ctrl key and select Edit > Preferences > Camera Raw (Windows).
Click Yes in the dialog that asks "Delete the Camera Raw Preferences?"

*On Ventura, it is now called "Settings".
