Soo I have this little bug/crash/error since 23+ it's online I just can't use. (I just downloaded version 23.5.1 and the error still persist)

OS: Windows 11 Pro 64-Bits (10.0, 22.000)

Describing the Problem:
->Every time that I open the PS, immediately after the menu window open, the program closes.

->Don't even load the menu pages, the documents, nothing.

->I Don't have any information besides that, it's just crashing.

If any of you have an idea, or adobe fix it I would love a solution

 

In the End, with the Adobe Support Help, I just downloaded version 22 to work do my work. 

But Version 22 its flickering while working and just have the newest version would be nice.

Perhaps try resetting Photoshop preferences?

(read this entire post before acting please)

Resetting restores Photoshop's internal preferences, which are saved when Photoshop closes.

If they become corrupt then various issues can occur.

 

Here’s some info on how to do that:

https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/preferences.html

Manually removing preferences files is the most complete method for restoring Photoshop to its default state:

The user Library folder is hidden by default on macOS.

To access files in the hidden user Library folder, see here for how to access hidden user library files.

Unexpected behavior may indicate damaged preferences. Restoring preferences to their default settings is a good idea when trying to troubleshoot unexpected behaviors in Photoshop. check out the video

And here’s an earlier forum discussion as an aid to understanding

https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem-discussions/quick-tips-how-to-reset-photoshop-preferences/td-p/12502668

 

You may want to backup your settings and custom presets, brushes & actions before restoring Photoshop's preferences.

Here is general info about that:  https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/preferences.html#BackupPhotoshoppreferences

 

I hope this helps

I've tried all this and uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop.

Thanks, good to know that it helped

So now I have to drag the preferences file out EVERY TIME I start Photoshop. It crashes each time I do not do that. It's a bit of a nuiscance to have to drag the file out, restart Photoshop, and recheck basic things like "zoom with the mouse wheel" every time I want to use a program. Any ideas? @Sameer K

Hi there,

 

Has this happened since a recent update of the operating system, graphics drivers, or Photoshop?

Have you tried any troubleshooting steps?

 

Go to the location of the preference folder mentioned below and rename it to backup. 

https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/preferences.html

 

  • Windows 10/11: Users/[user name]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop [version]/Adobe Photoshop [version] Settings
  • Rename the Adobe Photoshop folder by adding a .old at the end. (Adobe Photoshop 2022 > Rename > Adobe Photoshop 2022. old)

 

This will give a fresh start to Photoshop as a fresh install.

If Photoshop still crashes, please open Event Viewer from Windows Search.

  • Go to Windows Logs > Application Logs & look for Error & Warning logs.

     

  • Share the log related to Photoshop's crash instance with us.

 

We hope to hear from you soon.

Thanks!

Hi Sameer, is there any fix to this issue yet? I just updated to 2023 version and I still have this issue

Apologies, but this continues to happen. It opened properly once after I manually removed the preferences file. 
Do I need to do that everytime I open photoshop?

Crash file is below.
