Hi,

 

We're sorry about the trouble with Photoshop while opening files. Does this happen with all the files you try to work with or with large files? Are the files saved on an external drive or your computers internal storage? It might be helpful if you could share your computer configuration.

 

You can try optimizing the preferences of Photoshop using the steps suggested here: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/optimize-photoshop-cc-performance.html
