GPU Acceleration Required M1 MAX

Since yesterday I have problem with Photoshop 25.1 on my M1 Max Macbook Pro.

Everytime I summon camera raw, it says "Camera Raw requires graphics processor acceleration to edit photos." I was using it daily until a couple of days ago. I'm also attaching a couple of screenshots to see it see my gpu but still...

Maybe it was the beta I installed and then uninstalled that messed it up?

Also I noticed that when you have the beta installed if you open a 16bit file, Photoshop will crash.

I fixed going in the Finder menu click on Go and find - Library/Application Support/Adobe/CameraRaw/GPU and deleting this folder. then restart everything

I have the same problem, I can't open CameraRaw in Photoshop, the dialog box appears: "GPU Acceleration Required - Camera Raw requires graphics processor acceleration to edit photos."

Photoshop was working perfectly, and today this happens out of nowhere. I've already gone to Preferences > Performance and everything is fine, "Use Graphics Processor" is already enabled on my Video Card, NVIDIA T1000 8GB is being recognized by the system. Help me please.

same issue, Photoshop shows M1 in performance, but Camera Raw does not recongnize M1 as GPU. Worked up until today... I noticed that 25.1 was installed over the weekend. Any leads on this? I have to have camera raw.
