Fixed: Photoshop creating a debug.log file when you open a PSD File

I just updated my photoshop to the latest version, 21.2.2.289, and I noticed that everytime I open a PSD file. Photoshop creates a debug.log file in the same folder as the PSD file. How do I turn this off?

Good news! Tonight's 21.2.4 update should fix the issue with new debug.log file creation. 
Look for the Photoshop update in the Updates section of the Creative Cloud desktop. For help, see Update Creative Cloud apps

Let us know if the update fixes it for you as well!

Regards,

Pete

Same here, double-click opening jpg in v. 21.2.2, created debug.log in source folder:

Same here!

Same problem here: Open a file by double-click creates a "debug.log" file in that directory.

Same here. From the last update every file I open Photoshop create an empty debug.txt file in the same directory of the image opened and this file cannot be deleted until Photoshop is closed.

Hi

Not seeing the issue here with version 21.2.2, did you open the log file to see what information it contains

I did open it, it opened in Notepad and it was just empty.
