Issue summary: Error in handoff between LRC 15 and PS 27

Product and version: Photoshop desktop version 27.10.
Lightroom Classic version 15.5.1
Camera RAW  18.5.1

Operating system: macOS 26.6.2

Steps to reproduce:
1. Select a CR3 file in LRC. (With the “Raw Details” option checked.)
2. Command+E for editing in PS
4.
Expected result: The exported image opens in Photoshop.
5. Actual result: Photoshop opens, but no file from LRC appears.

Just making you aware of a flaw in the Lightroom Classic 15.5.1 to Photoshop 27.10 file exchange/handoff. When selecting a file to be edited in PS from LRC using command+E nothing happens in PS if the CR3 file has "Raw Details" added.

When deselecting the Raw Details option in LRC - the file opens in PS from LRC …. !!
