Trying out Photoshop for the web (Version: 2023.17.1.2 - Git Commit: 073de894c9d) on a laptop prior to a trip abroad (already have latest version of PS on home Windows10 PC)

When trying to drag/drop/open any jpeg file I get a "Insufficient PC Cores" message and everything stop s from there...

The laptop actually exceeds the minimum requirements https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/photoshop/system-requirements-web.html

64 bit, 6 core processor

16MB ram

Fully patched Win10 os

I'm using the latest version of Firefox (117.0.1 -64-bit) as my browser

 

Anyone have any clues as to cause or fix?

Hi all! This has been fixed now, so you should no longer have this issue.

Same issue here. Attached an error I saw in the console. Unsure if related.


navigator.hardwareConcurrency = 2


Browser: Firefox 117.0.1

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X (16) @ 3.600GHz

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti

OS: Linux (Pop_OS! 22.04) (shouldn't matter but there ya go)

Interstingly, Chrome (running as a flatpak vs FF as a Debian package) has navigator.hardwareConcurrency = 16

I am receiving this message as well when trying to create a new document using a Chromebook.  This is not happening on all chromebooks but has been confirmed on two chromebooks with two different users.

Hi Steve- I have mentioned this to the Photoshop Web team. Would you mind opening the Console in Firefox (3 line menu on top right -> More Tools -> Web Developer Tools)... then typing  navigator.hardwareConcurrency and letting us know what that says? It might help us figure this out.

 

Thanks-
