Just installed the latest release 22.3.0 and it crashes when I try to open any PSD file:

 

From the crash report:

Hi!

Have you tried turning off your Graphics Processor card? Photoshop>Preferences>Performance and unclick the Use Graphics Processor card, then restart Photoshop. If that fixes it, you need to look into compatibility issues with your card. 

Here is a help doc that you might be interested in: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/photoshop-cc-gpu-card-faq.html

Also, you can check March Release bug fixes here: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/fixed-issues.html

Let us know if that helps or if you have any other questions.
