    I have the same problem.  If I switch to the default cropping, there are no errors, but as soon as I try to use “content aware,” it crashes. This is a new behavior since the last update and seems to be tied to the update. Can someone from Adobe please address this issue?

    Yes Generative expand works but that uses up my credits which is a waste for background extensions

    I have only tried unticking the Use Graphics Processor to see if that made a difference but it didnt

    Then you may want to consider more trouble-shooting.

    It is unfortunate that such an issue has come up. 

    Does »Generative Expand« work as expected? 

     

    What have you done for all-purpose trouble-shooting so far?

    Restoring Preferences after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved might be a good starting point:
