Photoshop 2024 [v25.1] - Color Sliders don't work [Color picker issue -merged]

Color Sliders in my new Photoshop 2024 don't work at all - they don't change when i pick a color from the Spectrum or when i change Foreground/Bacground color with X key.

I reset Preferences, reinstaled PS and nothing works. Any ideas?

Photoshop 25.1.0, Windows 10.

@robzartworx there is a phased roll out for update 25.2 happening globally.

If you are in a managed environment (Enterprise/Teams/Edu) you may have to reach out to your plan admin to allow access to new updates within 30 days of release.

I am suffering from this problem too. The color picker is not working, the color slider is working. It is not moving when I pick another color and always stay at the first color I picked. Please fix this ASAP.

There is also an Eye Dropper tool bug that's not picking the right color and shows a slightly different shade of the same color.

Hi,

I was working on a project today.

I use color picker alot to take color samples and apply it on different object, in the new release it's not working as intended, and shows a different shade of same color while surpisingly the hash code was the same. This seem very strange.  I see two different color shades of the technically same color in photoshop.


I check all the relevant settings, my color profiles, disabled proof colors.  But still this seems to be a bug and should be fixed in the next release.

when I'm picking up a color with the eyedropper, the color does change, yes. But not in the color panel, so I cannot pick a close color. 

in this image, I did picked the green neon. but it doesn't update??

Dear Adobe Photoshop Team, I believe I have identified a bug in the current stable version of Photoshop (25.1.00):

I have an image with various colors, and I want to use the brush tool. I choose a color using the color picker. However, when I press the [ALT] key to pick a color from the image, the color picker still shows the old color. The color picker does not update to the color I selected from the image using [ALT].
