    If you are having problems, and feel that things might have got messed up, then you might find the Cleaner Tool is a good option.  It will get you back to a ‘before you started’ state of affairs, and give you the best chance of a good installation.  I have never used it, but if I had to I would go in and rescue my  presets.  .abr brush files, .pst workspaces etc.  As it happens I already have those files in a remote non-Adobe location.

    Prepare to run Creative Cloud Cleaner tool | Creative Cloud

    Good luck and please let us know how you get on.

    M3 Ultra running Tahoe 26.5.2.  Had the latest version of PS adobe.  Do not recall the number.

    I finally got a new copy of PS to almost load then a spinning beach ball appeared which never resolved whatever problem PS was having fully installing.

    I have now restarted, and plan to give it another try.

    I have PS.  I do not know if I still have the problem that started all of this.

    “Blue Rectangle” appears  form time to time and many options stopped working

    Same problem exists.  Nothing available unless I have an image open.  Cannot create a new fill layer  or do anything else without an image open.  That is not the way things work previously. 

    Any ideas?
