Question

"Enhance …" doesn't work, Camera Raw crashes!

If you click "Enhance …" to use the Raw-Details or Super-Resolution features, Camera Raw freezes and has to be forced quit!

This problem has been occurring for several days. I have the latest version of Camera Raw and Bridge, but also tried an older version and other PCs – same problem.

Please post some details about your system. I use Enhance on multiple computetrs, both Mac and PC, without issues, so I know that it does work. There may be something common in your setup (file storage location, antivirus, etc) that is the problem.

Windows 10 Pro, 21H2 (Build: 19044.1826)

Creative Cloud is completely up to date.

I've tried my colleague's PC, too – same problem.

Um, hello. Details? Video card, RAM, where are the photos stored (locally? NAS? file server?), are you using security software, what testing have you done, and what changed since it last worked?

Try resetting your ACR preferences, better?
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?"

Thanks, but that unfortunately didn't help.

The problem still occurs and Camera Raw crashes, when I click "Enhance …".

First, try disabling GPU in the Preferences (Performance tab). Any better? 

 

If turning OFF GPU works, it's a GPU bug and you need to contact the manufacturer or find out if there's an updated driver for it.
