After the latest update to PS 26.4.1 Photoshop crashes in the middle of launch everytime. I can't even get as far to check preferences. My operating system is Mac Sequoia 15.3.1 (24D70)

As soon as the Photoshop graphic launches it crashes. However I found a workaround that works for the time being. I hold the shift key while clicking the PS icon and select the bypass 3rd party plugins option and PS opens with no isues. THis is odd since I have no 3rd party plugins installed.

Try moving the folder present at the location mentioned here: https://adobe.ly/41vZi26

Move the folder to the desktop for now and then try to launch Photoshop.

Thanks for the help. I installed the 2024 version and am having the same issue

Thanks for trying that and I'm sorry it didn't help!

Would you mind sharing a screen recording so that we can check exactly when/what step the app is crashing?

Thanks,

Hi, sorry about the trouble!

I was able to find the crash report you submitted; thank you for that. Could you try rolling back to the previous version of Photoshop to check if you experience the same behavior? You can check out the steps here: https://adobe.ly/41qN2jJ
