I just updated to 2.0.2 and now I can't open my video files in PS CC. Was able to open them prior to update. Any ideas on how to fix?

    Ok. So it is not corrupt. Can you try resetting your Preferences. There is a button in Photoshop Preferences. Choose that then Restart Photoshop.

    Also check to make sure that it is a codec that Adobe still supports. Here is a list for Premiere and After Effects: Dropped support for QuickTime 7 era formats and codecs

    Hope that helps.

    Can you open the file elsewhere? Checking if the file is corrupt.

    Hi Zioneye,

    Sorry to hear that, could you please let us know the operating system you're using?

    Also, what video format are you trying to open in Photoshop?
    Are you getting any error?

    I'm using Windows 10. Error message states "Could not complete your request because video file could not be opened". Trying to open a .mpg - no problem prior to updating to 2.0.2.
