2019—Kill the Home Screen, Guys!

Anyone remember CC 2015? Same problem all over again until Adobe finally put that little check box at the bottom of the Home Screen to prevent it from opening again.

I'll repeat: Disabling it doesn't work. Legacy New Doc doesn't work. Reinstalling and erasing prefs doesn't work. Every time you save and close, it jumps into your face. It's a bug. Please admit it and get to work on it soon. It's slowing down the workflow!

Thank you!

I noticed that this also happens when Photoshop is in trial mode, that is you cannot get out of the start screen. I know trial moded not the case with you, but can you try a sign out off your account, then a sign in on your CC app?

And one final thing: Photoshop spreads files all over your system, so there is a method to getting rid of the scattered config files that remain and will poison any new reinstall. I'm not sure if you have seen this doc, but be sure you did what it said.

Use the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems

I'm having the same exact problem as Dale, and I'm running Mojave on an iMac with considerably more processor speed & RAM.

I sure hope Adobe fixes this bug ASAP!

Same problem here, same Mac OS spec! Reverted to the old version until ADOBE sort this out. Maddening!

OK, a little more info on this topic IF anyone else is having this issue:

System Info: Mac High Sierra (current version)

If you prefer working with the Application Frame OFF and are getting the Home Screen after saving and closing files (regardless of prefs resets and restarts, etc.), switching to Application Frame ON will result in the proper behavior. After that, you can go back to working with Application Frame OFF and it will work the way it's supposed to. It's still a bit buggy, however, as eventually the Home Screen will appear after working with multiple files, or a System Restart, etc. … — both with and without Application Frame ON or OFF — then, you just need to restart the program and repeat to get it working properly.

Same problem here, it seems like I've got exactly the same configuration.

High Sierra, Home screen disabled, Application frame (aka Photoshop on MS Windows) turned off. That home screen will pop up every time I close a document.
