I've been trying to open some files for 2 hours and they won't open. I have enough space, enough ram, enough of everything and still doesn't work. Even worse, it got stuck in one file so if i try to open up another one, it keeps opening the same file and it won't allow me to open another one. This sucks 😕😕 

I'm running the Adobe Photoshop 25.0.0 release on Windows 11.

Hi @andytoro could you share your workflow, what steps are you doing, ie open a file via double click on desktop....?  Are you seeing any errors or...

 

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 )Win)

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.

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