Question

Liquify Tool crashes Photoshop 2025 (Beta) and my laptop as well.

I am not enjoying using the Liquify tool in Photoshop 2025 (Beta). Any time I use this tool, Photoshop top status bar for file/view/window freeze and my laptop crashes. I tried several times and each time I faced the same issue. Eventually, I have up using Liquify tool. I have sent auto-generated reports a few times as well. 

My MacBook Pro has:

macOS Sequoia, Version 15.4.1 (24E263)

2.3 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i9

Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB

64 GB 2667 MHz DDR4

1.14 TB available of 2 TB

Hi all, please share any screenshots of what your workflow is when you see the issue. Do you see the same thing with the same file and workflow in Ps release version?

 

Thanks,

In the last few iterations of PS Beta, I'm getting Save dialogues and the Liquify dialogue box randomly quitting out. It's difficult to create a certain number of steps to make it happen it just seems to be random.

I wonder if any one else has this?

Hi @Mita Melwani 

 

1. Try resetting Prefs for the Beta:
/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/ Photoshop Beta Settings (Mac Ventura)
/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ Photoshop\ \(Beta\)\ Settings (Mac)


C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop (Beta)\Adobe Photoshop (Beta) Settings


Launch BETA Photoshop While Pressing The Keyboard Shortcut
With Photoshop closed, press and hold Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) / Shift+Command+Option (Mac) on your keyboard and then Launch Photoshop the way you normally would.

2. It may help if we could see your Photoshop beta System Info. Launch Photoshop beta, and select Help >System Info...and copy/paste the text in a reply.
