Try enabling "Deactivate Native Canvas" in General Preferences and restarting Photoshop; better?

I can't use photoshop anymore. As soon as I try to open a document, the page starts flashing and doesn't allow me to work. What can I do?

[Jeff Arola]

In photoshop go to Edit > Preferences > Technology Previews and enable Deactivate Native Canvas, then restart Photoshop

Hola, no sé si le ha pasado a alguien pero tengo problemas con Photoshop. Cada vez que intento abrir un archivo la pantalla comienza a titilar y no muestra las imágenes. Ya lo desinstalé y volví a instalar pensando que se solucionaría pero continúa igual.

When I open Photoshop, the app appears normal. However, when I click "open" to try and open a file, the screen of PS starts flashing black and white so rapidly, I am unable to use the app. What do I do?

I am having the same problem when trying to open any .psd files. Anyone else having this problem or found a solution?

I have the same problem. Photoshop was fine until I upgraded yesterday and then instead of being able to edit a png file all I get is a flickering white workspace. I tried uninstalling anything that said Photoshop and reinstalling Photoshop with no avail. I checked other software I use including Filmora 12 and Cartoon Animator 5, no flickering. I have two graphics cards INTEL and NVIDIA.

Goto to "Preferences" > "Technology Previews" and enabling "Deactivate Native Canvas".

Restart Photoshop and check.

This has already been described above

I've just updated photoshop and the opening tab is a flashing background that you can't interact with whatsoever, except to partake in an epileptic seizure. Frankly, I don't understand why every "update" creates new problems on a machine already updated to the new MS operating system.

Can anyone provide advice?

Many thanks.
