Photoshop 23.3 crashes after update (windows 11)

Question

At my company, we have updated photoshop to version 23.3. After that, the application stopped working under normal conditions.

Crashes (event viewer show problems with kernelbase.dll), can't open tiff's, etc.

The downgrade to the last past version does not give any problem at all.

Same. Crashed just on start like hell. Reboting PC can help.

Some time its one of five starting - dont crashed.

Tryed to loading without plugins and GPU disable - still crashing.

GPU disabling reveal terrible graphic glutch when FreeTransforms - bound not resets and/or disapair unpredictebly.

Reinstall not help. Will try prvious version. Adobe program quality now - its just disaster.

I hope that the industry will find a replacement, like Affinity, and that designers will migrate en masse.
As long as Photoshop is the de facto monopolist of the professional market and is sold on a subscription model, it will continue to degrade every year, as it has been doing for years. For one improvement there were five deteriorations.
