I have the same problem with version 22.1. I use Photoshop every day, and the unexpected crash just happened. If I just open PS and do nothing, the application stays open. If I open an PSD file, and do nothing, the application stays open. If I simply add a layer, hide/unhide a layer, in less than a minute, Photoshop crashes. I have tried 3 different files, happens every time.

I just re-installed Photoshop 21.2.4 and it seems to be working fine on the initial file I opened, edited and saved. Will see about other files.

Oh My God! I updated to Catalina by accident yesterday and PS is freaking out! Can't open anything and immediate crashing - it's crashed over 10x.  I'm on the iMac Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2019 Desktop / 3.6 GHz 8-Core Intel Core i9.  Can't wait to tell clients I can't get my work done because the OS update wasn't ready to be released.
