Phtoshop freezing when opening orf images and camera raw
I am having troble opening any raw file in photoshop.
I am still able to open jpg and png files. When the program freezes it does not crash but just becomes unresponsive and requires me to end task using task manager even after letting it load for over an hour. The files i am trying to open are not large (8MB). I am using the latest install of Photoshop 2025 on windows 11 with newly updated drivers.
I have tried all of the following with no results:
- Reset Photoshop Preferences
- Disable GPU Acceleration
- Purge the Camera Raw Cache
- Updating & Reinstall Photoshop & Camera Raw
My graphics processor campatibility check shows:
Pass: DirectX available
Pass: DirectX feature level 12.1 available, feature level 12.0 required
Pass: Above required VRAM (8724 MB of 1500 MB required)
GPU Detected: AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics (AMD)
Please let me know if you have any ideas on how to fix this 🙂
