My Photoshop automatically updated to the 2026 version, and since then, the application loading page appears and then disappears without opening. I restarted my computer and also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the application, but the same issue has been happening since the second attempt.

I agreed that preferences would be removed once I uninstalled the app. As I said, it opened once after reinstalling(I didn't set or change any preferences in this try), then the same issue: this page appears, and then disappears without opening the application.
