@UriDavid 

 

I found your thread in the Photoshop Camera forum and am moving it to the Photoshop forum for you.

 

 

Is your issue resolved?

This is bruken file associations, and if attempting to re-associate doesn't work, you can try to uninstall Photoshop completely and then reinstall. That should rebuild the associations.

 

This can sometimes happen when uninstalling an old version after a new version is installed. The outgoing version takes file associations with it, leaving them orphaned. Safe procedure is to follow strict version order,

Hi @UriDavid, does your system have the Adobe Camera Raw file converter plugin installed? Do you have Camera Raw or Lightroom installed and if so, can you open your Sony RAW files though those apps? I'm not sure if "right click open with" will work on ARW files. If you can send or point me to a test file, I'll try it. I'm using Windows 10 Pro with PS 22.5.2.

I have installed PS CC 23.0.2 today.

when i drag the ARW file into Photoshop it opens the file with the Camera raw V 14.0.1 and then i can move to PS.

system info

Adobe Photoshop Version: 23.0.2 20211119.r.101 ace26c0 x64
Number of Launches: 2
Operating System: Windows 10 64-bit
Version: 10 or greater 10.0.19042.1348

 

unfortunately all my ARW files are grater then 47mb so i can't send a sample

Okay. Thanks for that info. I'm not sure that it's possible to open ARW files directly with the method you are trying, as the files have to go through Camera Raw first to be converted/accessed by Photoshop. For example, if I try to open a CR2 file by "right click open with" and select PS, that command will automatically launch Camera Raw to open the file. If your system won't even allow that to happen, maybe others here will have more experience to share. Also, did you check in your system settings "choose defaults apps by file type" to see what you have assigned for ARW files?
