Adobe Bridge opens files by default in Photoshop 2020

[Kaj_E]

Since the latest updates to Photoshop and Bridge, I lost sky selection. When looking closer, I found that Bridge 2021 is set to open my files in Photoshop 2020 by default. Did not find anything in preferences to fix this.

How do I get Bridge 2021 to open my files in Photoshop 2021 again?

Open Preferences in Bridge > go to File Type Associations > change the default for .psd to Photoshop 2021 (and jpg, png, etc., if desired).

If Sky Replacement is not in your Edit menu in PS, check which version is open:

• Mac: PS menu > About
• Win: Help menu > About

Changed the default file associations in Bridge from Photoshop 2020 to 2021. Quite a job to do it for all file types. Hoped there would have been a simpler solution to do it in one step.

Adobe, please fix your updates so that this does not happen again.

So this is a work around and I know it Bites but uninstall bridge re install bridge with updated photoshop version installed before bridge installation. Its true programmers are over payed!
