Windows 11 hibernation mode corrupts Photoshop memory

I have found an interesting predicament that occurs when editing photos in Photoshop 2026 (27.0.0) and using hibernation mode on Windows 11.

 

Windows 11 will corrupt the Photoshop images if you try to do an upscale on a particular image after returning from hibernation. At first this drove me a little crazy but then I decided to shut down Photoshop and do a cold reboot. When I reopened Photoshop the problem was gone so I have to surmise that Using Windows hibernation is compromising Photoshop memory when Photoshop is being restored.

 

The larger problem I have is that I will normally have as many as a dozen (or more) images open in Photoshop simultaneously. Closing Photoshop and then reopening from a saved list is a time consuming process

Hi @ggruberphotog!
It looks like your GPU drivers haven’t been updated in a while, could you try updating them and see if that helps? Here’s the link with the steps: https://adobe.ly/3WYtDVx
I also noticed you have multiple graphics cards in your setup. To make sure Photoshop runs optimally, you can check out this guide: https://adobe.ly/48iY3bk
Let me know how it goes!

FYI the first thing I do with every new Windows installation is disable Hibernation.  It has so much potential to mess up when coming out, and power consumption is not an issue.  It takes a chunck of your boot drive as well.

I don't want to turn off hibernation. did you read the first two posts? I AM DISBALED. I NEED THIS FEATURE SO I DON'T HAVE TO RECONFIGURE THE VERY COMPLEX ENVIRONMENT I WORK IN -- CAUSING ME EXTREME PHYSICAL PAIN.

Hi @ggruberphotog!
It looks like your GPU drivers haven’t been updated in a while, could you try updating them and see if that helps? Here’s the link with the steps: https://adobe.ly/3WYtDVx
I also noticed you have multiple graphics cards in your setup. To make sure Photoshop runs optimally, you can check out this guide: https://adobe.ly/48iY3bk
Let me know how it goes!

Only one graphics card. Photoshop may have legacy data that they did not remove in my current build. I will check the drivers. Thanks for your help.

Hi, thanks for reaching out! 

Please go to the Help menu in Photoshop, then System Info, and copy the text. You can share the info with us by either pasting it as a reply here or in a text file and sharing the file with us. 

Are the files saved on an external drive or your computer's local storage? 

I tried reproducing the behavior on my end, but things worked fine for me after I started my system up from hibernation. I will admit though that I put the machine on hibernation only for a few minutes. How long do you keep your machine in that state? Also, does the Sleep option cause the same behavior? 


Thanks,
Nikunj
