PLEASE, PRETTY PLEASE… FIX this error!

I get this error a lot with the Liquify and Camera Raw Filters.  I also upgraded to your latest PS version and it’s slow and filters don’t work correctly and it generally [cursing removed], thus I downgraded to PS 27.6!

I pay $70 a month for the “privilege” of using Adobe products and this particular error has been prevalent for the last year.  Please FIX THIS ERROR before creating [cursing removed] !

    I didn’t work.  I had to restore all my settings and it isn’t worth the pain to do that again.  Please fix.

    Thank you for your efforts Sameer K!

    Hey, @nolcon. Welcome to the Photoshop Community. Please share the system info from Photoshop Help > System info > Copy & paste into a text document > upload & attach here. 

     

    This can originate when the preferences are corrupted. The steps below will back up the current preferences and replace them with a completely new set. You’ll have to set up actions, shortcuts, & any other saved preferences and presets, hopefully, one last time. 

     

    Here goes, please make sure there are no stale preferences in your Photoshop. Go to the location of the preference folder below and rename it to backup.

    • Windows 10/11: Users/[user name]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop [version]/Adobe Photoshop [version] Settings

    • You can press Press the Windows key > Enter 'Run' > Enter %APPDATA%\Adobe

    • Rename the Adobe Photoshop folder by adding a .old at the end. (Adobe Photoshop 2026 > Rename > Adobe Photoshop 2026. old), You can restore these preferences later if needed.(https://adobe.ly/4860qM9)

    • Restart the computer.

    These changes will provide a fresh start to Photoshop, much like a new installation.


    Let me know how it goes.

    Thanks!
