Missing Plugins folder CC2018

[five-bellies]

Heya, does anyone know where the plugins folder is for Photoshop CC2018? I can't find anywhere to install my 8bf files for my plugins....

Thanks in advance

Same place as earlier versions of Photoshop on windows anyway. I link Adobe's Plug-in folder to my Plug-in folder via a shortcut link.

Cheers JJ....As you'll see above I've found mine, not in the same place as yours. I left my installation to do it's own thing bar deleting older versions I have installed.

Same place as previous photoshop versions on mac as well.

That is an Adobe Plug-in Folder the is share between Adobe Photoshop and and Adobe Bridge and is where ACR is installed.  It it not the folder where your Photoshop third Party Plug-in should be installed. Though I see  you have installed your there.  As I wrote I link Adobe normal third party plug-in folders to my Photoshop Plug-ins folders for Photoshop 32Bit and Photoshop 64 Bit versions.

My Topaz plugins are in the PS CC 2018 plugin folder but do not load/appear in the app when I open it.

My Topaz plugins are in the PSCC 2018 plugin folder by do not load/appear in the app when I open it.  I don't need help finding the folder, I need help correcting the problem.  Mac Sierra 10.12.67  I did not have the problem with 2017.  Brand new.  It did load up my Portrait Pro.  I don't want to have to start over with a new Topaz download, is there an option that will correct the problem?

I have the same problem ith windows 10. Topaz plugins installed but cannot be opened in CC2018. How to fix the bug?

What do Topaz say?

[Exuberant_Solace15C2]

Plugins function normaly if the image layer is selected. Resolved.

[alanah46667686]

Image layer selected and the problem still isn't resolved for me.  My third party plugins still wont open in CC2018.  Anyone have any other fixes to this? Tried uninstalling and reinstalling programs and still nothing.

[Jeff Arola]

What operating system are you using?

Which third party plugins won't show up on the Filter menu?

Dear Adobe Creative Cloud community,

There have been multiple threads spanning back years requesting Linux support for Adobe's Creative Suites.

This being year 2016, I suggest that it is time to seriously consider supporting Linux and provide the community with a roadmap for this support.

Could you update us on the discussions happening within the company on this topic? Are there any plans? What are some basic timelines you are considering for this to be implemented?

From an outsider's perspective, there would be two major milestones to hit with this one:

Milestone 1: Adobe CC Wine Support

Milestone 2: Adobe CC Native Linux App

Please consider the market potential and stay abreast of the three main OSs: Mac, Windows, & Linux.

Thank you!

If Adobe has not responded to a message started in 2012 Creative Cloud for Linux (Ubuntu)  by announcing plans to support Linux, I seriously doubt that starting a new request is going to get Adobe to change course

[douglastrevino]

Ignoring the issues will not get Adobe to change course either. How is Adobe supposed to gauge the community's needs if the community is not willing to speak?

[MrDrizz]

I'd say it's because the community knows they will never support Linux. Even with Ubuntu's snaps which offers a way for developers to make one snap package that will work on many Linux distros adobe will not support Linux. Maybe they have deals with Microsoft and Apple, who knows.

They claim there isn't a market share, I'd disagree, the market is there. A lot oh photographers are only using Windows because CC. Make CC for Linux and watch as people ditch Windows (but not macs, those people are a lost cause )

@John T Smith

Ever heard the phrase "Push the envelope"?

[multiabhay1]

Blackmagic design has released Free "Fusion 8.2 beta" for linux.

so there is no reason for you guy's to not ditch windows right now.

May in future Davinchi resolve lite will also be released for linux (Full version is already supprots linux).

Don't blame adobe for not able to switch to linux.

[RightAbove Inc.]

You are right.
The way things are going with windows, it's very likely that many developers and designers will migrate to linux over the next years.

I hate to work with npm, gulp, nodejs and other command line tools on Windows. It sucks to switch from linux to windows every time i have to save an image on Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop.

If CC was supported on Linux, I'd definitely stop using Windows.

My portraiture and noiseware plugins have to be reinstalled every time i open photoshop cc2018. What is the fix for this? MacOS High Sierra 10.13.3

I've been struggling with this since downloading CC2018, and I just found a solution!! Re-installing and then RESTARTING MAC straight after, did the trick! See here:

All I did was restart my MacBook after the installation, and it worked
