Question

Impossible to restart Photoshop after GPU crash

  • December 11, 2025

Hi, I frequently work with several Blender instances alongside Photoshop, which puts a heavy load on the GPU. Crashes are expected and not really an issue, but once they happen I can no longer launch any Adobe applications. They appear in the task list but never fully start, and the only way to recover is to reboot the PC. I’ve already tried ending all Adobe background processes or GPU-related services, but it doesn’t resolve the problem. Any ideas on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.

Config:
- Windows 11 Enterprise 25H2

- RTX3090 24Gb

- 64Gb RAM

- Ryzen 5 5600x

Hi @felix_7246 

 

Thanks for sharing the detailed system configuration. Since your GPU drivers and RAM are already up to date, this does seem more workflow-specific, especially given the heavy GPU load from running multiple Blender instances alongside Photoshop.

 

A GPU crash can sometimes leave the graphics subsystem in an unstable state, which explains why Adobe apps appear in Task Manager but don’t fully launch until a reboot. 

 

As a first step, I’d recommend reviewing and trying the suggestions shared here: https://adobe.ly/44x9Q3D

 

This article includes some very helpful tips for optimizing GPU usage and stability in Photoshop. Hope this helps!

 

 

Regards,

Unfortunately you haven't given us any information about your system. Therefore, all proposed solutions are a look into the crystal ball.

 

Is your system up-to-date? Do you have installed all recent updates and patches for the operating system and the device drivers, especially the graphic driver. Please make also sure that you have installed the Studio version and not the Game Ready version of your NVidia driver.

 

Maybe you can post your Photoshop system info. In Photoshop goto Help > System Info and hit the copy button. Then paste the entire informations into this thread

 

My System: Intel i7-8700K - 64GB RAM - NVidia Geforce RTX 3060 - Windows 11 Pro 25H2 -- LR-Classic 15 - Photoshop 27 - Nik Collection 9 - PureRAW 6 - Topaz Photo AI

Fair enough, here you go:

- This has occurred with several drivers, but only Game Ready versions. I could switch to Studio drivers yes
- I’m currently using GeForce Game Ready Driver 591.44.

- My system is fully up to date, with no pending updates in Windows Update.

Note: after a crash and multiple failed attempts to launch Photoshop, it appeared to open on its own while I was browsing the web (Zen Browser). I may have been watching a video at the time. Very odd behavior—could this be related to the GPU suddenly being detected or reinitialized?- Photoshop System Info:

Yes, I already tried restarting all Adobe-related processes via Task Manager, as mentioned in my post. I haven’t reset my preferences yet and would prefer to avoid it, since this bug occurs frequently.

Have you tried resetting Photoshop preferences?

What about opening Task Manager, stopping Photoshop, and restarting it?
