I’m having a saturation issue with Photoshop Version (27.10.0), how do I revert to a previous version so I can use Photoshop until Adobe fixes this issue?

Camera Raw & Bridge looks good as it did before the (27.10.0) update.

Thank you,

Julius

You might not have to lose your settings. One major step in not losing your settings is to make sure that when you upgrade or reinstall, always select the option to import previous settings and preferences. If that option is selected, you shouldn't have to rebuild everything.

But it’s always a good idea to make sure your last system backup is up to date before updating an application, so that if something goes wrong you can always restore the settings from your last backup.

Most Photoshop settings are under just a few parent folders; if you ever need to know where a specific settings file is on your operating system you can refer to this Adobe help article:

Some are saying that it happens when you “edit in Photoshop” from Lightroom, but this is not actually the case. When I’m in Lightroom and I “edit in Photoshop”, the colors in PS are over saturated but when returning to LR, they are fine. And when saving a Jpeg from within PS, even though PS is showing overly saturated, it saves the jpeg colors just fine. So it is just ‘visually’ over saturating the colors, it’s not changing the colors in the image file. Some Adobe rep’s have said it’s a PS glitch with certain GPU’s and they are trying to fix it.

So, if you are editing in LR, just don’t do any color changes in PS and you should be fine until they fix the issue.

I just updated PS today and I, too, have found a significant saturation issue with the update.

Uninstall 27.10 from the CC app then install 27.9.1 by clicking the 3 dots next to Photoshop and choosing other versions.
Also turn off auto-updates in the CC desktop app so that it does not re-install 27.10

Dave,

Thank you for responding, but that sounds like a lot of work getting Photoshop back to where I had it...workspace, brushes, etc. I think I will hang in there to see what Adobe does here.
