Using PS 2026 it will not open dng files. I have reinstalled both PS and dng converter, and cleared preferences for camera raw filter. Camera raw cannot be updated. Supposedly dng files,can be opened in PS 2026. HELP

my computer updated automatically to Photoshop 27.9 yesterday. Want to revert back to the previous software version. The 3 dots that are below the PS symbol to request to install an earlier version are no longer there. Any ideas what to do. Thank you 

Recently my windows machine updated, and now none of my PSD files have their corresponding file icon on the thumbnail. It will show the thumbnail just fine, but the file icon is missing. Other programs display their file icon just fine.An example of a PSD file present in the explorer, but missing its file icon in the thumbnail.An example of a different file type (.clip) that displays a thumbnail and file icon. I’ve told Windows to always open PSDs with Photoshop. I’ve also turned the option to display file icons off and on again.Would like any insight others have into fixing this. It’s not ideal to not know at a glance which files are PSDs, and I would prefer not to display file types in the name of files.

How do I get the ‘Open in Photoshop’ button back in Camera RAW?

Updated to v27.9 and now i can not resize my images within camera raw ( 18.4.1)I process in CR, from camera, and when i try to adjust the size, using the corner or middle adjuster,  it is not working. Working ok prior to update Any Ideas ? Thanks

Bonjour,Depuis deux jours je ne peux plus modifier mes photos dans photoshop depuis LRC. Un message me dit "problème de connexion entre LRC et PS. Essayer de réinstaller PS" Comment réinstaller PS en conservant l'ensemble des réglages et actions mis en place.PS: le problème n'existe pas depuis mon mac book, c'est seulement sur le mac de bureau

I have a canvas 8000x11412 pixels the image is the same dimensions. When I go to print it doesn’t fit the paper. Which fwiw is A3+.  The printer settings say the correct document size and that output paper is the same. I have an earlier closely identical image which previews and prints fine. I think there is some hidden setting I have inadvertently set.This is a shot of the image When I go to print the preview just shows a small part of the image  

Hi Folks. I often need to design stickers and I'm finding that when I print them they are smaller than what I've actually created in photoshop. I will design the actual sticker/image and then drag it onto a blank A4 page where I size it (in cm's) and duplicate it if needed. However when I print it, even though A4 is selected in print options they always come out smaller. I usually get a prompt saying something along the lines of "image too large, resize to fit" or words to that affect.Is there something I need to be doing in print settings to ensure they print true to the size I've created. Any help in this matter greatly appreciated. 

Not sure it's a bug, but there seems to be no way of deleting a stop in the vector shape gradient editor.(see screenshot)It’s also the same in the property panel The available actions are: click to highlight the stop or double click to open the colour picker, but the DEL key doesn’t delete the stop after being highlighted, and there’s nothing showing when right clicking on the stop.In fact, there’s no extra settings for position and delete like there is in the standard gradient editor. It lacks consistencyI resorted to create my gradient in the standard gradient editor, save it so I can use it in the fill and stroke settings. Photoshop version 27.8.0 on Windows 11

My PC lost power exactly as I was saving a large catalog. The file is 784 MB. I cannot open it in Photoshop, Photopea, or third-party repair tools.I verified with a hex editor that the 8BPS header and XMP metadata are intact, so it is not filled with zeroes. However, when I used ImageMagick to extract layer [0], it output a solid black PNG.Can anyone with advanced hex/scripting knowledge see if the individual layers are still recoverable?<Link redacted>

How can I remove this useless amoral garbage from my photoshop? I not only never asked for this, but specifically don’t want this. Feels *** to force install this wretchedness into all of your products and just say “deal with it.” My computer can’t handle this, and shouldn’t have to. 

Hi, hope someone can help, I am trying to track down a compatible version of DNG converter app (for Mac) as the current version available isnt compatible with my computer.Adobe, in their infinite wisdom, have removed all previous versions and despite getting in touch with their labourious online chat system their standard reply is 'update to the latest Mac OS'...something I can't do currently - and knowing they do exist would rather not shell out for a whole new machine just to overcome this very simple problem...(Feels very much like pulling LR6 support 'update your computer' seems a standard reply, which is utterly ridiculous). So, if there is anyone out there with a link/resouce to these it would be greatly appreciated. I run one machine on 10.12.6 (Sierra) and another on 10.11 (El Cap)... Many thanks!

Adobe Photoshop Version: 27.6.0 20260422.r.11 4804c18  x64 (final, Release)System: Mac OS 15.7.3In this version the scrolling speed in the layer panel has drastically increased so its not usable anymore to scroll with the mouse scrollwheel.With a standard generic mouse using scroll wheel and moving it one step scrolls more or less 10 layers.With such a big steps in scrolling using the scrollwheel becomes not possible. User is resorted to use the side scrollbar which results in a drastically more time spent doing this function that is done 1k times each day.I have checked and nothing else on my system has increased speed so its local to Photoshop.Can some validate if they have the same issue as me? 

That’s a pretty big issue: Open a file Edit it launch Image Process using the same folder of the opened file as targetAt end end of the process all opened file get closed, withouth asking for saving.I’m getting pissed off about this, every release one fix and two regressions.  

If a file is over the “Save for web” maximum resolution of 8192px it scales down the image to max res. Even though exporting slices that are smaller than the max. res. (1080x1350px) it still scales it down to about 75%. The original file is 10800x1350px big, and has 10 slices á 1080x1350px that are scaled down to a height of 1024px. 

I'm using the latest Photoshop 2025 (as well as the latest suite of other products) on a Windows 10 laptop.  I use Adobe Camera RAW and then Photoshop to edit RAW files.  Often, I want to rename a directory where I've saved files to.  However, even when I completely exit out of Photoshop, Windows will not allow me to rename the folder, as it claims it is in use.  And, yes, when I try to rename the folder, I don't have any files opened within it, and aren't otherwise in it.  The only solution is to reboot.  Why the heck is Adobe holding onto the folder locks after I exit the program, and how can I prevent this from happening in the future?

I don’t want Firefly, will not be using it (explicitly), and wish it was not involuntarily installed.Even if I can’t control what Adobe installs on this box, I’d like to hide it completely. PhotoShop and the rest already have incredibly cluttered interfaces full of low-contrast icons and tiny text. Adding even more clutter is not, not, not an improvement.(I say “explicitly” because presumably some kind of ML is going to be involved in operations like resizing images whether I like it or not, but you could at least make it transparent, not a distraction.)

When I open photoshop, everything works normally, until I press CTRL or shift or Alt, where all my commands stop working.When I press, for example Ctrl+Z to undo. When I try using Shift to sleect a layer. When i use ALT+TAB to change window.The errors are. Can’t use space bar to move canva. Can’t select more than one layer with Shift. Mouse can’t paint with the brush. Can’t create a clipping mask wiht Alt. Just the few that i tried using.I had the same mistake a couple days ago, and i solved it by pressing both shift for 5 seconds, and everything was working accordingly. I tried using the same trick to “fix it” and it doesnt work.Last time i uninstalled photoshop 3 times and it didnt work neither.

Im trying to match a background on a product shot with the gradient tool, I cant seem to sample the colours from the background with the gradient tool, I cant find the foreground to background colour option any more, and if I try to sample with the eyedropper from the gradient properties tab the properties tab disappears when I make the  gradient layer invisible so  all I can sample is the gradient layer and not the background layer. Im sure I used to set the gradient colours by double clicking on the little preview graphic of it top left, but that doesn't seem to work anymore?

after bridge updated to 16.0.6.9 and photoshop(27.8.0) started it completely remove all my custom actions 

The weird halo appears around anything I have scanned and separated from background using channels. 

 psd로 저장한 후 다시 열려고 하면 자꾸 이런 창이 뜨는데ㅠ 해결 방법 아시는 분 계실까요? photoshop2026입니다

I am converting a large number of files (.ai and .psd) to .png. Within Photoshop, I can do this efficiently using automation tools. The only problem is that when I convert a tranche of files, I am noticing that the height and width of the first image in the batch is being imposed on the other images in that batch. Example: If the first image is 5 x 1 in, those dimensions are applied to every other image in that batch after conversion. Desired behavior is that each image should keep its original dimension. I understand how to do this when converting images one-by-one, but how can I prevent this when working in batches? Thank you. 

Thanks to everyone who took part in our previous SFTW259 ‘lock gate’ challenge.This week I heard Bob Marley’s ‘Stir it up’ and, once that ear-worm had taken hold, I had to base our starter image on something connected. I found this whisk as a 3D model, in Adobe 3D assets, and I textured it using Adobe Substance Painter.The challenge is, what can you make with the whisk?The “rules”:Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry. Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc. Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”. The challenge is not limited to Photoshop. Any Adobe software can be used.  There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humor and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!

I wanted to better understand the commercial usage of Adobe Firefly, especially when it comes to client work. If I generate images using Firefly, can I safely use them for paid projects like social media ads, website creatives, or marketing campaigns without running into any licensing issues?I’ve read that Firefly is trained on licensed and public domain data, but I’m still unclear about a few things do I need a paid Adobe subscription for commercial use, or is the free version also acceptable? Are there any restrictions when creating content for brands or businesses, and can clients claim full ownership of the generated visuals?I run a digital marketing agency and plan to use Firefly for client creatives, so I want to ensure I’m fully compliant before scaling. I’d really appreciate insights from anyone who has practical experience using Firefly professionally.
