Problem accessing PS 2026.

In Lightroom - photo - edit in - open as layers in photoshop.

I assigned “command - O” as a shortcut.

After updating to the 2026 version of photoshop my shortcut still opens in photoshop 2025, which I cannot even find in my launchpad since updating.

If I go through the tool bar instead of the shortcut it still opens in the 2025 version.

I’d like to use the latest and greatest but I can’t get anything in there other than dragging. Does anyone know WTF is happening?

Did you restart your computer after upgrading to the new version of PS?

Look in the real location, that is your /Applications folder. Launchpad only displays whatever it finds suitable to display for whatever reason.

What’s your macOS version?

Do you see Photoshop 2025 in the Creative Cloud desktop app? You can uninstall it if you don’t need it anymore.

Also, is it possible you have another volume with Photoshop 2025 installed? Creative Cloud app doesn’t always recognize such installations.

Also, when Photoshop 2025 opens, you can Cmd-click it in the Dock to reveal it in Finder.
