I get the prompt that Lightroom and Photoshop are having issues connecting. I've tried resetting the preferences of Lightroom Classic and photoshop. As well I have re-installed them both through the Creative Cloud App. 

 

Still doesn't work 😞

 

Any other ideas out there?

 

Adobe Photoshop Version: 25.11.0 20240716.r.706 b326a7d x64

Lightroom Classic version: 13.5 [ 202408062022-6258095b ]
Windows 10 Pro

After reinstalling Photoshop 2024, do you see Photoshop 2024 listed in the drop down of Lightroom Classic Preference?

(Please check Lightroom Preferences->External Editing and check for the dropdown if Photoshop 2024 is listed there or not.) If you are not seeing Photoshop 2024 listed, please open Photoshop 2024 seperately and close it. Now recheck if your preference is showing PS 2024 and then try your workflow.

1) After re-installing Photoshop 2024, did you try to uninstall Photoshop Beta ? (If yes, then you may have to reinstall Photoshop 2024 again)

 

If the issue still persists, could you please try out the below mentioned steps:

a) Can you check if the same error is observed with Photoshop 2023 version as well? 

b) Do you have any external hard disk connected?

Does the issue happen with images present on local too?

When you reinstalled them, did you install Photoshop first? That is often important in this case. It may also help if you show a screenshot, or state word by word what that 'prompt' says.

Yes i did install Photoshop first. I also repeated the process twice to insure I got it right.
