Photoshop 2023 not opening multilayered EXR correctly anymore

sounds like you have disabled the dialog window. The dialog can be disabled with the ‘Always show this dialog’ checkbox to open images faster without manual confirmation. In the case any options become relevant in the future the hidden dialog can be re-enabled with a button in the Exr-IO information window (Help -> About Plug-ins -> Exr-IO).dialog

Oops. Sorry I had not noticed the age of the first post. It came to the top of the list today and I wrongly assumed it was current.

Hi davescm - note you are answering 4 months old post, so of course now I have newer version than back then when i sent report.. If you reply next year even 25.2 will not be current version ;).

And yes i had 3rd party plugin installed fixed which comes with Otoy Octane render engine for multiEXR support. It just stopped to work in my version for some reason, later on i fixed it so now it works again but every PS update somehow breaks something lately, and I have way more crashes than PS ever had in past (PS was rock solid for me for decade and as of later it's not so stable any more sadly)..

I guess that happens when company forces RENT software, so they have no need to update or test for stability since money is arriving every month/year anyway :(.

Photoshop has never directly supported multi-layered EXR files. It requires a plug in such as EXR-IO https://www.exr-io.com/

It could be that you previously had the plug in installed in a version specific plug in folder and it just needs moving into the latest folder.

Note v24.7 is not the latest Photoshop. The current version is 25.2

Hi, try installing manually Exr-IO and specify the folder with plugins for Photoshop, for example;
С:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2023\Plug-ins
