Photoshop Crashes when using rectangular marquee tool

[jonias]

I just purchased Adobe CC and performed a fresh install of Photoshop 2020 (21.0.1) on macOS Mojave (10.14.6).

When I create a new document, add a new layer and fill it with a color, it doesn't update the canvas until I zoom in or out. What's worse is if I try to select something with the rectangular marquee tool, the application just crashes and doesn't save or anything.

I've spent hours messing with trashing preferences, clearing the settings file, different combinations of GPU settings to no avail.

Here is a video. https://d.pr/v/NBuOa9

Seriously rethinking this purchase...

Hi there,

Sorry that Photoshop 20.0.1 is crashing while using the Rectangular Marquee tool. Please checkout the below steps to troubleshoot the issue: 

1. Could you please turn on the Legacy Compositing option in Performance preferences?
   Choose Edit > Preferences > Performance (Windows) or Photoshop > Preferences > Performance (macOS). Select Legacy Compositing. Quit and relaunch Photoshop.
2. Enable the root user account on your Mac and see if the issue still persists in it? Refer the below article to know how to enable root account: https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT204012 

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks,
Akash

Thanks, but the problem still persists. I'm at a loss here.

Hi Jonias,

I'm very sorry about your frustration here.  In your video, something is not making sense when you create the Default Photoshop Size document.  The background contents is set to White, but the canvas is showing a transparent background.  I think the problem starts there. 

As a different suggstion, have you tried uninstalling Ps 2020, doing a full machine reboot, and then re-installing Ps 2020?

Sincerely,

Andrew

[jonias]

Is there a more low level way of uninstalling than the uninstaller? I've tried the CC removal/cleaning tool and have reinstalled twice already. The trial worked fine but as soon as I paid for it and upgraded, everything crapped out.

[Andrew Sender]

Hi Jonias,

For MacOS, I don't know of anything more low level than running the the app "/Application/Adobe Photoshop 2020/Uninstall Adobe Photoshop 2020".  But I did read another user who had a similar issue to this and said a reboot resolved it.

I upgraded to Catalina, ran disk utility, uninstalled all Adobe CC apps as well as Adobe CC and reinstalled.

I also reset my PRAM. The problem persists.

Here is the crash log: https://d.pr/f/qbybkF

Thank Jonias,

I'm gonna get our engineers to look into this.

It may help if we could see your Photoshop System Info. Launch Photoshop, and select Help > System Info... and copy/paste the text in a reply.

[Andrew Sender]

Hi Jonias,

Do you have any plug-ins installed on top of installing Photoshop 2020?

Andrew

Marquee crashes it, anything takes FOREVER to render, even drawing a line with the brush tool...

Now, I've only had these issues since updating to MacOS Catalina yesterday.

Have you tried restoring your prefs? I see that the macOS openCL driver crashed.

[Reuben5E93]

Can we actually get some help with this?

Restoring preferences, fresh installations and other things dont work no matter how many different Adobe Employees say that it needs to be done so please, it can't be a complete enigma that people are having issues with the selection system and its tools so yeah, please skip the condescending "Have you tried turning it off and on" and start with the "We have a bugged line of code in the system and are trying to fix it"

[Jeffrey Tranberry]

Sorry you're having trouble. This thread is quite old. What is the behavior you're seeing? What version of Photoshop? What OS? (Text from Help > System Info might help)

I looked in our system and I don't see any crash reports from you. Please submit all Crash Reports along with your email address: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/submit-crash-reports.html That should give us a hint about what you're seeing.

[Reuben5E93]

I would provide crash reports but it isn't prompting them, even with the registry edited directly through CMD. I have trashed and reinstalled every single preference but it hasn't fixed it so there is something funny afoot

[defaultn988n3s0wr8u]

seriously Adobe needs to get this issue fixed. happening to me as well. Shouldn't be paying this much for a program that crashes every 2 mins....AB-SO-LUTELY  RIDICULOUS!

[WildFyr]

They have removed Legacy Compositing... is there another way to fix this issue? I have the same "lagging" only updating after scrolling in or out, and if I use the marquee tool and drag off the canvas Photoshop freezes and Task Manager tells me it is not responding.

[JanMichaelS]

Same issue but I'm on a Surface laptop. Quite infuriating and wastes production time. No plugins installed.

[Mogens5E15]

Same issue here. When using the rectangular marquee tool (using an Intuos 3 tablet), Photoshop CC 2019 hangs and has to be shut down via task manager. 

I only started experiencing this issue after I turned off the Pen & Ink "press and hold rightclick" feature in Windows 10 Settings. Can't say I can see why the two would be related but that's about the only thing I've changed recently as far as system config goes. 

my next port of call is

0) see if the tool behaves properly when using a mouse

1) to re-enable that right click feature

2) update CC and Photoshop

[ntimes9]

I am also experienceing this on an intuos graphics tablet -- did you ever find the answer to this most inconvenient issue? Help would be very much appreciated... I've a deadline looming

[actionmath]

I'm experiencing the same issue. If i drag the rectangular Marquis while zoomed in, and the screen has to scroll, photoshop hangs and needs to be closed via task manager. I can't finish the project since i'm trying to make a complex all-ove pattern that needs to be cropped with percision. This is terrible. Please fix.

[RDGPhoto]

I found this thread as well, because I have had the same persistent problem!! 

I am nearly at the end of my rope with this issue, as it crashes so frequently on even the simplest projects. I am on V 23.2.2 on Windows 10 pro. 

[Lachlan227413903lof]

Same issue here.. where's the fix? Photoshop is effectively unusable.
