Photoshop Versions 25.6 and 25.7 Encounter Critical Problems
Issue:
A critical bug has been identified in Photoshop versions 25.6 and 25.7. When following these steps:
- Open an image.
- Create a new layer.
- Add a layer mask (reveal) to the topmost layer.
- Use a black brush to paint on the mask.
- Press "Ctrl+Z" to undo the brush strokes.
Photoshop will crash with a high probability.
Temporary Workaround:
- Open Task Manager.
- Locate and expand the "Adobe Photoshop 2024" process.
- Identify and forcefully terminate all instances of "Microsoft Edge WebView2".
- Photoshop should temporarily recover, allowing you to save your work
Limitations:
- Further actions in Photoshop may still trigger a crash.
- Photoshop version 25.5.1 does not exhibit this issue.
