It's basically unusable. It randomly freezes when trying to type, change font, etc. I've been getting the spinning wheel of death for 15 minutes now... can't do anything. Is a fix coming?

Which version of Photoshop and OS?
How much RAM and spare disk capacity do you have?

Have you tried resetting the Photoshop preferences, which you can do under the General tab in Photoshop preferences?

Plenty of both. CS4 and Windows 10. I've tried the reset 

 


Well all bets are off:
