PS won't open as my default when in LR. While in LR, when i right click to edit in PS, it automatically open in PS beta. How do I fix/correct this issue? This only happens on my Laptop, it does'nt do it on my desktop.

Just as the case for file associations, I would assume that the last installed Photoshop version takes over the Edit In function.

 

So uninstall the beta, uninstall the production version - then reinstall in the order you want them.

 

If the connection is now broken altogether, reinstall Lightroom Classic.

 

Yes, I know - but honestly, having a beta installed is always at your own risk. There will be problems, especially if the beta and production are at the same major version level.

Yes, but when I did Uninstall Beta... opened LR, right clicked to edit in PS, they were all grayed out... very strange. I installed beta again, the PS was there, but still opened up in beta.
I'm gonna try what was suggested. Uninstall them both and install in order I'm looking for.
Thanks for the replies.
