Further investigating this has shown that the problem is associated with screen resolution.

As an old guy (83) with diminished eyeshight I have had my monitor resolution set to a text size of 175%. at the default resolution of 1920 x 1200

Reducing the text to 150% aleaviated the problem of not being able to open RAW files. but, I had a difficult time seeing what I was working on. I got around that by lowering the res. to 1600 x 1050 (which creates other PITA consequences like scrambling all my desk top short cuts). At the least though there is a work around. It would be cool if Adobe would fix this so I could work some what comfortably.

D600 (Never had a problem in over 10 years using PS)

"Could notcomplete your request because of a program error."

No error code given.

I have posted what/where the problem is.

when increasing the UI size to 200% this happens. while in automatic or 100%, no problem. I thought maybe the file size was too much but the

D850s and Z7s seem to be ok.
