Camera RAW files open in regular versus Photoshop (Beta)

[photogal11]

Something changed and I can no longer use Bridge to open a RAW file in Photoshop (Beta); instead it opens in the regular Photoshop 24.7.0.  I checked the File Type Associations in Bridge and for Sony Camera RAW (.arw) it says Adobe Photoshop 2024 25.0, which is the version for Photoshop Beta.  So why do the RAW files not open in Photoshop Beta?  If I have Photoshop Beta already open when I click open in Camera RAW, the RAW files do not shop up in Photoshop Beta.  If I then open regular Photoshop the open RAW files shows up there.  What am I doing wrong?

I am using a PC running Windows 11 Home.

I am Having exact samr issue on a new Mac Studio...wasn't happening for last month just started today... did you find a fix?

Yes, I found that I had to right click on the image in Bridge on "Open with > Photoshop 2024 25.0 (Default)".  Then it worked okay.  A minor inconvenience, but a solution.

Great, another bug!

This right click doesn't help if you are trying to load multiple files into layers, to avoid the layer mask badge!

What next?
