File Associations HELP

Since a recent upgrade the file associations are a total shambles in Bridge. Two things are particularly bugging me today:

1. I regularly need to open pdf files into Photoshop from Bridge, should be right click > open with> Photoshop. Not anymore, no photoshop in the list.

2. Double clicked a .CR2 Canon raw file in Bridge and it opened in Windows Photo viewer, tried a DNG and it opened in "Snip & Sketch"?!?! Went to the file associations in Bridge prefs and camera raw not listed as an option.

Since when did Bridge decide to boycott CC apps?

William.

Hi William Chitham,

 

Thank you for reporting the issue. 

 

To investigate further, please share the Bridge version & Photoshop version which you are using at your end. Besides, could you also confirm the previous version of Bridge where the file associations were working as expected.

 

Thanks,

Bridge team

With dng, you want to select a Photoshop version, not camera raw. If something isn't listed, you can browse to that app. Can you do that?
