I also cannot open nef files from Nikon Z6 in Photoshop CS6. I have Camera Raw 9.1.1.461, which Update says is the latest.

Whoops. I get the forum won't take png. Sorry. Will it take jpgs?

Yes, JPEGs are accepted.

What operating system are you using?

Photoshop cs6 can only use up to camera raw 9.1.1, which you already have, so there are no updates to photoshop cs6 that will allow Nikon Z6 nefs into photoshop cs6.

You would need to convert the Nikon Z6 nefs to dng copies using the adobe dng converter 11.1 or newer and then those dngs should open in photoshop cs6.

It shows that the Z6 should be supported in version 11.1. 

I have Camera Raw 9.1.1

In adobe camera raw version 12.3

What version of ACR do you have, can you open the NEFs from within Photoshop?
