Photoshop CC 2018 crashes on launch

FFS Adobe! Fix your sh!t in 2018! This hasn't been fixed since 2017 lol!

So, exactly what do I pay a subscription for? I'm running latest windows on pure Intel with fully updated drivers for everything. Nothing special is running in the background. My system has 16gb of ram and is well within the minimum specs. It *was* working. Now it's crashing every startup. I tried resetting preferences with ctrl+alt+shift on startup thinking it might be scratch disk / preference related, but no luck.

I have a similar issue.  Running Windows 10, 64Bit.  Everything was running OK until 2 months ago.  When I attempt to run Photoshop CC, it goes through the usual start-up processes, then crashes.  I get a message the a crash report has been sent to Adobe.  This has happened multiple times.  I try to get help with a live person at Adobe, but to even make this happen, is now difficult (used to be fairly easy).  My desktop is a relatively new Dell XPS (August 2017), and everything ran fine until around this past April.  I was able to get a Case number (ADB-2033577-W1W3) in early May but was not provided with any instructions on how to access it.

I have even performed complete uninstalls of both Photoshop CC along with the Adobe Cloud, without any luck. 

Fortunately, for the time being, I can access Photoshop CC usi9ng my laptop, but I need to run it on my desktop!!

Please help!!

What OS are you running?

This just worked for me, I went into applications and application support and deleted all files and applications/scripts relating to creative cloud, emptied my trash restarted my machine and reinstalled. Worked on the first try.

I dont recommend blanket deletion, but in my case I was reinstalling it anyway so I didn't care.

I have a MacBook Pro running MACOS 10.12.6 and when I updated to PSCC 19.1.2 it would crash as I tried to load it. The MACOS error dump said the program was looking for a file that was not available.  Using Time Machine backup I reloaded the App files and reloaded the PSCC 19.1.1 version and I am back in production.  Out of curiosity, I updated to 19.1.2 again and again it would not load.  So I repeated the above process and I will stick to 19.1.1.  The Adobe support people were of NO help in tracking this problem down.

I fixed it by unplugged a second monitor connected to a integrated video card.

The PC has a additional video card as a main one. Thus, I connected both monitor on the video card by using an adapter and Photoshop launched. Apparently, it is not possible to use both integrated and added video cards at the same time.

I have installed Adobe Photoshop C.C. Version: 19 x64

PC specs win 7 (Intel i7) / 64-bits / 32 RAM

All,

We have been experiencing the same issues with brand new Alienware Area 51 computers. We had an IT guy take a look at it today, and it appears, that turning off turbo boost (which jumps the processing power from 3.8 to 4.2 Ghz), fixed the issue entirely. The advice we received form the IT company suggested that this is clearly an issue on the Adobe side. Installing earlier versions of Adobe CC back to 2015 solved the issue, and we are able to keep the turbo boost on.

How to fix:

1-if you have a turbo boosted processor, try turning off the functionality and run Adobe CC products again, and it should work fine on Adobe CC 2018

2-For all other functionality, including intensive 3D modeling or rendering, turn the turbo boost back on. They are even going to make a toggle switch for us to make the process easy while using Adobe CC products.

Bottom line, this latest release of Adobe CC 2018, for some reason, will not work with a turbo boosted Core I7 with 8 cores. If you do not have a turbo boosted processor, then you are likely still in the same boat, without a fix.

It runs on a Mac Pro, double screen. Ok. I fixed my problem. I discoverd a Calibre folder inside the Photoshop Preset folder. Well, after disinstalling photoshop, do browse "photoshop" in lens serch ( not using "comand + F" ), and do control any document named photoshop (not as estension obviously). How could a Calibre app folder be inside the Photoshop preset folder is a mystery. A web one, I suppose. (From Italy, let be openminded about my english)
