Photoshop 2026 Sony ARW Finder icon issue

Hi @Misuzu33795511cvd5,

Thanks for reaching out, and sorry for the delayed response. I am hopeful that the issue is fixed by now.  This looks more like a file association behavior on macOS rather than something Photoshop directly controls. macOS handles icon previews and file associations differently from Windows, so in some cases certain RAW formats (like ARW) may default to a generic app icon instead of displaying a format-specific one. If the issue still persists, you can try manually changing the file association to see if it improves the icon display:

• Right-click an ARW file

• Choose Get Info

• Under Open With, select Photoshop (or another preferred app)

• Click Change All

It may or may not fix the cosmetic icon issue, but it’s worth trying. Let us know if you see any change after adjusting the association.

Regards,

Srishti
