I get this error every time I open a new file.  it started completely random yesterday, I never had this issue before now. Nothing preceded it, no new installs etc.. Now there is no start screen either.

I've updated the software: only thing that changed is now I can open old files, before I couldn't.
I tried uninstalling then reinstalling, no change.

I am extremely frustrated that I cannot call or chat with someone directly to troubleshoot this issue.

I have the same problem - with the "File"- "New" screen not opening properly. This started with the last 19.1.5 release.

Please help!

I have the same issue, the start workspace not showing and when I try to create a new file I get the blank screen you are having.

That is true for all my CC apps

Hi Stormslegacy,

That's definitely not what should be happening, let us help make this right. As you're getting an error every-time you open a new file, could you please let us know which version of Photoshop are you using? and which operating system are you working on?

Also, could you please try updating the Graphics Card drivers from the manufacturer's website and see if that helps?

Regards,

Sahil
