sorry but I read of users who continue to write posts and complain about the problem of the impossibility of using photoshop menus after using camera raw. THE SOLUTION I FOUND IS REPEATED/REPORTED AT THE TOP OF EVERY PAGE!!!

If nothing works, reboot and try again. I did and it worked for me the last time. Good luck!

Hola, tengo Photoshop desde hace mas de 5 años , y es la primera vez que me ocurre este problema que llevo meses con el.

Cuando uso Photoshop y paso a Camara Raw y vuelvo a pasar a Photoshop, la barra superior de archivo o de filtros p guardar imagen, ya no es visible, por lo cual , pierdo todos los cambios realizados a dicha fotografia, teniendo que comenzar desde el principio. Alguna idea de como solucionar este problema o a que es debido. Gracias.

Try to reset the preferences of Photoshop using the steps described here:

It's recommended to backup your settings before resetting the preferences.

That doesn't seem to be working. I wish this would be fixed already, it's been months.

The problem is that if your library panel is not visible, it cannot be enabled from the top-level menu. This is very frustrating when there is no way out!

Hi, I have a problem with the Photoshop application. After a few operations, the menu freezes. The tools work, but the menu doesn’t. What could be the issue? I'm using a MacBook Pro with an Intel UHD Graphics 630 graphics card. This started happening after the latest update. Previously, this only happened in the beta version.

Hi,
I also had a similar problem and I give you below the link that helped me.
It is still a strange story and I hope Adobe is able to solve this professionally.
The link is from John Waller.

I've found that as long as Libraries is made visble once per session either upon starting Photoshop or after a freeze, no further freezes will occur in that session. I can open further images normally without Libraries being open.

Since I have updated to Photoshop 2025 on my MacBook Pro, my toolbar at the top of my screen glitches and does not allow me to click buttons like "File", "Edit", or "Photoshop 2025". Everytime I update my computer or photoshop it still happens. I notice that the toolbar is frozen because the right side tools like the time, batter, WiFi, bluetooth, etc has disappeared. If I go to a different application like chrome or Finder, the toolbar works just fine. Is this happening to anyone else and found a solution?

Sounds like this confirmed bug:

What works for me to get the Menu Bar functioning again with Photoshop 2025 (ps ver 26.2) on a 2015 MacBook Pro with macOS Sonoma 14.7.2 is switching to another Adobe application like Bridge and then back to Photoshop.
