Radial Blur doesn't work at all on Mac!!! PLEASE HELP!

[vic47]

I'm going slightly mad right now. I can't get to use Radial Blur at all. Not even on a plain image, not ona rasterized layer, smart object, absolutely no way on Earth. Using a MacBook Pro 16" with M3 Max 128GB, on Sonoma. Please help, I'm really hating this so much. Just updated Photoshop to 25.12.0 and it still doesn't work. Jeeeezzzzzzzzzz.... and it didn't work on 25.9.0 neither.

"The operation could not be completed."

I tried absolutely everything. Even a 720p image...Radial Blur is completely broken, AND I NEED IT....omg.

@vic47 it's working fine for me on Windows with Photoshop version 26.0, have you tried manually resetting your Photoshop preferences

Remember to back up your settings before doing the preference reset

Ok, moving the "Adobe Photoshop 2024 Settings" and "Adobe Photoshop 2025 Settings" to another folder fixed the error.

...but if I move it back, it doesn't work. So now my question, can I get a more precise fix? I mean, what should I delete from my settings, to not start from scratch on a new settings folder? Isn't something kinda for sure what could be causing that error?

@vic47 there's a radialblur filter prefs file in the settings folder, you could try just deleting that
