Question

Can't see anything!

My Photoshop in Creative Cloud for Windows 10 seems to "open" my images but i can't see anything but a black window; however, if I make some changes, they already take place 😞  --as seen in Picture Viewer in Windows--  I must close my image and wait till I see it as a miniature in Recent Files to open it properly.

Of course, my Photoshop is automatically updated.

First, try disabling GPU in the preferences (Preformance tab). Any better?
If not, go to Preferences > Technology Previews... and check "Disable Native Canvas" - then restart Photoshop. Better?
If not, recalibrate and build a new ICC display profile, the old one might be corrupted.
If you are using software/hardware for this task, be sure the software is set to build a matrix not LUT profile, Version 2 not Version 4 profile.
If turning OFF GPU works, it's a GPU bug and you need to contact the manufacturer or find out if there's an updated driver for it.

Thanks, thedigitaldog 👍 I disabled GPU in Preferences and now my images display properly; I hope it won't affect other functions in my Photoshop 😶
