Filter Forge Plug-in Disappeared

Hello:

I'm running Photoshop 2022 on Windows 10.

I installed Filter Forge.  When I opened Photoshop and went to Filter, Filter Forge appeared in the list along with NIK, Luminar, etc.

Today, I opened Photoshop and Filter Forge is no longer in the list.

Can anyone tell me why this happened and what I can do to get it back?

I did contact Filter Forge and I'm still waiting word from them.

I was hoping maybe someone from Adobe side may have some ideas.

Thank you.

Same problem here..
Happened in the past too. So I had to purchase a newer version.
Hope this time it will work some how. I have bought the "lifetime"
version. I hope this meant a human life. Not the lifetime of a butterfly ...

The "Nik filters" and "Eye Candy 7"were also gone but are functional great
again after reinstallation. Someone likes to keep us busy.

Just a good note:  Verson 11 is working just perfect. No problems at all.

I suspect it's being installed in the Version Specific Location instead of the Shared Creative Cloud Location:

Thank you for the reply. If and when Filter Forge contacts me, I’ll have to ask them about their program.
