PS won't open existing fiiles

Report · Feb 23, 2023

Hi

I am having problems opening files. I have the latest version and have reinstalled it too. I have reset preferences.

PS opens fine to the "Your Files" area. I CAN create a new document but I cannot open any documents. I have tried .jpf .tiff .arw and none of these work. When I select "Open", the open/browse window opens and then it appears to be doing something in the background. A dialog box does open up but so briefly I cannot see what it says. Then nothing happens. If I click anywhere in the open window I get the bing noise which I can bypass with esc but then I have canceled opening a file.

I'm now out of ideas and now cannot use PS which is very frustrating. Any help is welcome.

Thhanks

You can disable the home screen in Preferences, so that Photoshop opens directly to the main interface.

What happens if you open files by double-clicking them from a file browser (Bridge/Windows Explorer)?

Hi

Just a thought but have you tried restarting your computer, do you get the same result if you go to File > Open

Try using the Adobe Cleaner Tool

Report · Feb 23, 2023

I'll give that a go thanks

I've gone through Adobe Cleaner Tool steps but sadly it's still not working. Previously when trying to open a file PS would stay active and I could press esc and try again (didn't do anything differently but still) whereas now it becomes unresponsive so something has changed but not to improve the situation!

Hi @Paul22559739ul50 sorry to hear this.

Let's make sure we're in a default state and there are no stale settings somewhere:

Restore your preferences using this manual method:

https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/preferences.html#Manually 

Does it work correctly?

If that doesn't solve it, you can quit Photoshop and put the Settings folder back.

It may help if we could see your Photoshop System Info. Launch Photoshop, and select Help >System Info...and copy/paste the text in a reply.

Thank you,

Cory

Thank you,

Thank you for the sysinfo. Ps 24.2 was just released, curious if you update to that version if you have the same issues?

Thank you,

Cory

Thank you,

Hopefully, I'll be able to update soon and check but it's not yet available in CC desktop

Updated to the new version and sadly it has not fixed the issue. No change

In a slight twist, I can open images in Photoshop from within Lightroom (edit in > edit in Photoshop / open as layers in Photoshop

Thank you for the update @Paul22559739ul50. It seems your drivers are not current, could you install the latest and restart to see if this might be the issue?

Name: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Ti/PCIe/SSE2

Driver age: 4 months
Driver version: 31.0.15.2230

Be aware of this:

Engineering has identified a problem with this specific driver version.

Updated to the latest drivers (https://www.nvidia.co.uk/content/DriverDownloads/confirmation.php?url=/Windows/528.49/528.49-noteboo...) but no change.

It's strange as PS worked fine only a few days ago

Report · Feb 25, 2023

I have the same problem, cant open files, niether psd. or other formats, cant instal previus versions of Photoshop neither, it just broke 2 days ago, the PC I work on is only for graphic design, the "reseting preferences" solution someone proposted dose not work at all, neither roll-back to previus versions, my PC specs are more the enough to run Photoshop. I did not touch nothing nither install new software.

Hi @Hordanix sorry to hear this.

I notice there's an integrated Intel GPU in addition to the Nvidia GTX 1650. GPU conflicts is a known problem. You may need to disable the Intel GPU, see section 6 & 7 here:

What does it say under Help > GPU compatibility?

No change

Your graphics processor is compatible. 4x ticks and has detected the GPU

@Paul22559739ul50, a couple more suggestions:

resize/move the Ps window away from the center (before the Open) to be able to click the dialog after it drops behind the app
Win+tab or other window management actions might show the dialog

The team has seen this issue with some machines where a popup or dialog box is behind other windows. Check this and let us know if this might be the case with your issue.

Thank you,

Cory

I checked that from the start. As mentioned a dialog box briefly pops-up next to the main window (2x monitor set-up) but then disappears in a fraction of a second and there are no other dialog boxes

Report · Mar 05, 2023

I've also noticed this bug in addition to the many others added in the latest Photoshop update. So far the work around I've found is just closing and opening Photoshop until the files decide to open from the home screen again. I haven't spent much time poking at this bug to reliably replicate it but it's definitely happened to me twice this morning before 10am and has been happening since the v24.2 update.
