Wow... i like that you guys care more about my language than my opinion about your software... speaks alot about the policy... 

What are the issues and what i did to solve them? Well... 
- Some tools are lagging while used. 
- Navigator is lagging as hell while workign on anything over hd resolution
- Working with painting, brushes are randomly freezing and loosing track of the patch leaving out straight lines. 
- Many times software is totaly not responding to functions as saving the file or exporting. 
- constant issues with performance on basically any project more complex than a simple 2 layer background and text over it. 
- Plenty of more issues with particluar tools i would never expect to occur. 

OS... windows on 2 high end rigs (1 : Ryzen 7, SSD, 32 Gigs of ram, GTX GPU - 2:  i7, 32 gigs of ram, SSD, RTX GPU) Macbook 2021 M1.
Issues are occuring on all of the machines i own. 

What i did to solve them? Well..constant downgrading versions, waiting around month before  updating to new releases, basically any solution i found on this forum and online. 

What i want? Let me to instal the CS6 version... was working with it for like 6 years... on way more weaker rigs and neve... literaly never had so much issues as i have daily with nowadays versions...

Do you still not understand what this Forum is?

You are not talking to Adobe employees.

Exactly, unless their status specifically says Adobe Employee, the people you're talking to are other users.

Which operating system are you using Photoshop on? What specific issues are you having?

 

Without more details, it's hard for us to provide any assistance.

Restoring Preferences after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved might be a good starting point:
