P: Program error while opening or creating new document after Photoshop 22.1 update [2020]

Is there any update?? I have done all the troubleshooting steps and still can't save my files. 

Tried to disable generator, disable grapic processor, reset all settings and reinstall the app.

I'm using macOS 11.2.1 (Big Sur) with Photoshop is latest (v22.2) version.

My Mac is MacBook Pro 15 inch late 2018, with 32GB RAM and Radeon Pro 560X 4 GB, which should be compatible with v22.2.

However, everytime I try to open any file in v22.2, it shows "could not complete your request because of a program error." Disabling grapic processor in Photoshop settings can make me open the file, but a lot of features doesn't work, such as select a range of image and fill it with color. When I try to do that, it would show "could not complete your request because of a program error." again.

Downgrading to v21.x can solve this issue, so I think it's a bug of v22.x. Also, in the settings of Photoshop, I noticed that it doesn't recognize my graphic card. There's nothing shows in the "Detected Graphic Processor" field.

Here is my error message:

I tried to open a PNG today and Photoshop gave me an error message "not the right kind of document"?! I then went to Affinity Photo, opened the file with absolutely no problem! It's really sad to see what is happening at Adobe recently. But I can't work like this (especially since it is prime season for designers). I cancelled my cloud subscription for now and will wait and see if they manage to get out of their bug hole. I have serious issues in Photoshop, Premiere, Illustrator. But my workflow is really dependant on Photoshop first of all, so this is really unaccepatble. I also don't have the time to continuously research issues with Adobe products and then try to find workarounds to basic procedures. If anything, this is on Adobe and it is their responsiblility to offer products that work (and work also for people who don't own a 1 Mio dollar mainframe computer). My recommendation to Adobe: Do read opinions in your forums and not just official bug reports. But then again I have stopped caring, I know that if Adobe will not read their own forum post and take to heart what is written in them, their competition certainly will.

Can someone explain to me what is with all the program error in photoshop? Cannot save, cannot save as, crash.... Since this membership thing exist, I am getting regular malfunctions and it is getting really old. Am I the only one to have this? I figured with a monthly membership I would have a software that runs smoothly. Not at all! I've been using photoshop decades now and went through all the versions, this is by far the worst. Thanks

Looks like the error is back in this latest version as well after a few weeks of not seeing the error!! Don't know what is happening, but it is very frustrating! Attaching screenshots for reference. 

I see everyone just had the same problem as I did... would not save due to a program error... I was about to uninstall and put in the older version as many people have suggested on this thread, but thought I would try restarting my computer first... and guess what?  It worked!!!  Restart your computers people 🙂

I've been having an issue with Photoshop 2021 for weeks now. When I try to open any file or create a new file, an error message pops up that says

"Could not complete your request because of a program error."

The program then will not close. When I click on the "X" to quit, the error message keeps popping up. I have to close Photoshop through the Windows task manager.

The only way I can get Photoshop to work is by deleting the Adobe Photoshop 2021 Settings folder. Then I can do my work. But when I close the program and re-open it, the same thing happens again.

Troubleshooting steps:

1. Disabled the graphics processor under Edit > Preferences > Performance.
2. Disabled the Generator.
3. Uninstalled Photoshop and reinstalled it. When that didn't work, I completely uninstalled Creative Cloud and all of my Adobe problems and that also didn't work.
4. Finally, I contacted Adobe support and someone remote controlled my PC and said they fixed it (this took 2 hours). However, the issue started again the next day.

Computer specs:

• Dell XPS 8930 64-Bit Windows 10 Pro
• Intel i7-9700 @ 3.00GHz
• 16GB RAM
• GeForce GTX650 with the latest Game Ready driver v461.09

It has been a couple of months by now can you please fix this I'm still not able to even open Photoshop.
