Firstly, the conversation type should have a 'feedback' option. I do not believe mine falls under Discussion or Bug. It might fall under Idea, but I do not think that adequately describes what I want to categorize this post as. 

 

1. Installing the new version of photoshop does not appear to have kept any of my settings. This has not previously been a problem when updating to a new version. 

 - This is valuable to me because I have my workspace set up the way I like it and am comfortable with. 

 

2. The new color picker is not intuitive. I cannot seem to get the colors I want with it. I would like an option to use the legacy version. A tutorial on how the new one works after the update would not go amiss. 

 - This is valuable to me because being able to select the correct color is somewhat essential to my job. 

 

3. Updating erased file associations with photoshop. I had to tell PSD files to open with photoshop again. This has not previously been an issue when updating. 

 - This is valuable to me because it creates an unnecessary extra step when trying to open files.

Correct answer AxelMatt

On point 1. I don't see this on my machine, but I've heard that this behavior sometimes happen one some machines. It's recommended if you're planned to installing a update to backup your settings before.

Point 2: I don't see significant changes to the color picker. Can you please describe more detailed what's you problem.

 

Point 3: It's the same as point 1. This isn't the general behavior and I don't see this at any time on my system. But sometimes it can happened. This cannot be completely ruled out.
