My photoshop is already in the latest version. This error started since i've updated photoshop.

This is due to a description error in "photoshop_v2025.jsx”.
However, this is a bit strange since no error message was displayed until In the past.

Left is "photoshop_v2025.jsx”, right is "photoshop_v2024.jsx”

There is no description that corresponds to

e.line);

}

of 2025.

My 2025 shows

{

// Debugging

// alert (e + ": line " + e.line);

}

It looks like the Photoshop beta created this problem (I did not install that beta) and maybe the Photoshop  26.5.0 update today helped.

This folder ("/Library/application support/Adobe/Startup Scripts CC/Adobe Photoshop/") doesn't exist inside my library. 
Many people saying that tried to reinstall photoshop but without any success.

Hello everyone,

We have seen multiple reports of a script error related to Photoshop and the following workarounds have fixed it for many users. 
1) Uninstall (remove preferences) and Reinstall Photoshop

Disclaimer: Please note that renaming preferences folders will remove all the custom settings, and Illustrator will launch with default settings. You can also save a backup of the folders, the location of which is mentioned here.

2) Open the JSX file in a text editor, which is available at
"/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Startup Scripts CC/Adobe Photoshop/" for macOS
 "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe" and "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe" for Windows

Add } in the last line, save the JSX file, and relaunch Illustrator.

Also, could you please upvote this UserVoice (https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/601447-illustrator-desktop-bugs/suggestions/49667915-error-...) and add your comments there. Doing this will help us prioritize this request, and you will be notified of any updates.

this would have been easy if Adobe Team patch this VIA UPDATE. Can you guys do this?

[JosephComm]

Oh nevermind. The Answer for me that FIXED MINE is just I REMOVED the Photoshop Beta including the preferrences.

[Alex Carcedo]

Thanks, I solved the problem by uninstalling and reinstalling Photoshop and Illustrator.

Can you check here if that answer helps? Uninstalling the Photoshop beta seems to help:

Solution 

• Workaround 1:
  • Uninstall Photoshop 26.5 (make sure to remove preferences).
  • Reinstall Photoshop 26.5. This will install the correct “photoshop_v2025.jsx”.

Uninstalling Photoshop Beta worked for me!

me pasa este error al inicial illustrator la ultima version,  

[m1b]

Hi @Oscar5C13 this seems to be a problem introduced by the latest Photoshop Beta. Uninstalling it should fix. If not, search this forum for similar posts.

Illustrator works fine, but is so annoying...

I appreciate any help.

Do you have the Photoshop Beta installed, or just the general release?

It seems to be an error in a Photoshop script for Adobe Bridge integration that multiple apps need to read.

Actually solved it by REMOVING the PS Beta - since I have it installed. This was the root cause of the error. It works fine with me when I removed it. 

This things should be PATCH through update.
