Photoshop 2025 starup script fail

Report · Mar 30, 2025

The Photoshop 2025 startup script is not loading and is disabled in Bridge 2025. When I re-enable it and restart Bridge, I get this message (screenshot).

I've deleted and reinstalled Bridge 2025 and get the same error. When I try the Pre-release version of Bridge I get the same error. What else can I try?

Note that "I think" this behavior started after installing the latest Photoshop beta. But not exactly sure.

Report · Mar 30, 2025

I added a } at the end of the script and this seem to solve the issue. Is this a known bug? I never deleted the bracket in the first place.

I open in adobe raw something from bridge, edit, hit ok, return to bridge - the bridge Beta will hold that old preview. i have to change folder and go back in order to see the change. Setting is 'always generate'.. never had issue with this, not sure why it started now. mac OS, Ventura 13.6.3, adobe beta v 15.1.0.595

anybody else?

Hi @alladin77 could you share your sysinfo so we can better see what might be going on?

Launch Photoshop beta, and select Help >System Info...and copy/paste the text in a reply.

Thanks,

Cory - Photoshop Product Manager
