Hi there!

 

Like the title says; everytime i want to edit a smart object Photoshop completely crashes. I already fully uninstalled Photoshop but it didn't fix the problem.

What have you done for all-purpose trouble-shooting so far (apart from re-installing)? 

Restoring Preferences after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved might be a good starting point:

Thankyou for your reply!

 

I already restored the preferences and now Photoshop is already crashing after a few seconds when opening the file.

The file is created in a older version of Photoshop, maybe there is a problem in that?

Did you use the Cleaner Tool before re-installing Photoshop?

That does not seem very likely, but can you provide the file?
