Try logging into another account (you may need to make one), still crashing? 
Try starting up in Safe mode (hold down Shift Key when booting), still crashing?

Are you saving to an external drive formatted for exFAT? Does it save OK saving to the internal harddrive (e.g. the desktop)?

Hi Jeffrey,

Thank you for your advice but sofar to no result.

Right now I've formatted my disc and installed a brand new system with nothing on it but Adobe cc and Photoshop. One monitor attached and nothing else. No usb or thunderbolt. No information was transferred from previous system.

Photoshops freezes on quit. It is now possible to save an image.

Please se attached spindump.

Hope to hear from you!

Sincerely Vincent Kruijt
