The file could not be edited because Adobe Photoshop 2022 could not be launched

All of a sudden I'm having issues opening images in the latest version of Photoshop using the latest version of LRC. After selecting the "Edit in..." option, there's a long hang (about 30 seconds or so), then a LRC alert pops up that reads "The file could not be edited because Adobe Photoshop 2022 could not be launched." I have Photoshop 2022 open and running. When I click "Okay", THEN the image opens in PS!

 

Any idea what the problem is?

    Use the Creative Cloud application and uninstall both Photoshop and Lightroom but when asked, keep the preferences.

    Then install Photoshop first, followed by Lightroom. Better?
