Hi there, 

 

Sorry about the trouble experienced.
What versions of Photoshop and operating systems are you using? What happens after the error message pops up? Are you able to close the application? Did you try doing any troubleshooting on your end?

Please do the following troubleshooting Go to Preferences > Performance and uncheck Use Graphics Processor and restart Photoshop.
If that helps, you can then update the GPU driver, reboot your computer, then re-enable Use Graphics Processor in the Performance Preferences and restart Photoshop. 

If this doesn't work, you may try and reset Photoshop preferences back to defaults and check if that helps. Here's the article for the steps: https://adobe.ly/3ceal5t Also, back up the existing Photoshop preferences if you have any custom brushes, action, and workspace: https://adobe.ly/2vNz6FG

Let us know how it goes.


Thanks.

Thank you for your quick response.

I am using Windows 10; 64 bit operating system; photoshop v23.02.

I couldn’t exit our of Photoshop but was able to use the control, ault, and delete button in the task management which worked and was able to get out of photoshop.

Thank you
