Photoshop Font Issue [Could not complete your request because loaddeepfont cache in getdeepfontcache

[Marcus5FAD]

Getting this error when trying to load up font list

Have uninstalled all installed fonts

Ran Photoshop font test script

Cleared PS font cache and Windows font cache

Help please!

[J453]

If you go to Type > Font Preview > and set to "None" and relaunch Photoshop, does the error go away?

[Marcus5FAD]

Hi Jeffrey,

Thanks for your response - unfortunately that did not work.

Other fixes I have tried, deleting CT font cache, deleted temp files (including recycle bin)

Disabled adobe fonts

Fresh Photoshop install

I can't seem to fix this issue or at least find a workaround

[Marcus5FAD]

Anyone???

[J453]

Two things to try:

Let's make sure we're in a default state and there are no stale settings somewhere:
Restore your preferences using this manual method:
https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/preferences.html#Manually
Does it work correctly?
If that doesn't solve it, you can quit Photoshop and put the Settings folder back.
If it does solve the problem, I would like to get the folder of settings to try and figure out what is bad with them.

The second thing to try is: Try creating a new Admin user account and run Photoshop from the new user account to see if the problem goes away: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/basic-troubleshooting.html#permissions

Thanks for the response,

Resetting preferences has worked over the last day or two - not 100% everytime but it seems to be the best way of getting around the issue. Obviously, its not ideal so could you take a look at my settings folder perhaps? How would I go about sending this over to you?

Use CC files or dropbox to share a download link.

@Marcus5FAD 
Can you follow these steps to clear deep font cache too?

Delete all Photoshop font cache files

The Photoshop font cache contains the enumerated list of fonts and font features installed to the system that Photoshop can use. Deleting this font cache file will allow Photoshop to create a new one.

MACOS

• Quit Photoshop and the Creative Cloud desktop app

• Navigate to: /Users/[user name]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop
  For help navigating to this hidden user folder, see Can't see user library files in macOS.

• Delete the CT Font Cache  and FontFeatureCache folder and empty the Trash

WINDOWS

• Exit Photoshop and the Creative Cloud desktop app

• Navigate to \Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop <version>
• Delete the CT Font Cache  and FontFeatureCache folder and empty the Recycle Bin

Just popping in to say that this method worked for me just now with the exact same error as OP.

WINDOWS

• Exit Photoshop and the Creative Cloud desktop app

• Navigate to \Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop <version>
• Delete the CT Font Cache  and FontFeatureCache folder and empty the Recycle Bin

This worked! But just to say you need to tick the 'Hidden items' box in the view tab of your user folder otherwise AppData doesn't show up! That threw me initially 🙄

Thank you very much. My menu is in German and here the option "Ausgeblendete Elemente" has to be selected.

[Mr3dPHD]

Worked here too! I had to do a file explorer search for each file to find them. Thanks for posting!

[njaval32772013x9vc]

[Creative34240427flsw]

This work perfectly for me too... Thanks for the fix!!

[Smart Soch]

Thank you so much! You solved my problem god bless you.

[Daniele28931981rs59]

this solution, tempted several times, does'nt work.

updating photoshop don't resolve the problem, probably they arent able to fix it

do you think is better to unistall photoshop ande reinstall?

[tamas.nagykalnai]

Windows method works for me, thank you!

[duke2k]

This isn't working for me at all and I have no idea why or how to fix it

[Hugo225176543o2q]

Cuando doy click para elegir una fuente, me sale ese error. Que hago?

[Cayque27301333co0s]

Eu tô com esse problema ao selecionar fonte 😕

 

[Alan347324672her]

Ingresa al editor del registro, y borra los registros de photoshop.

Editor del registro/hkey_current_user/software/adobe/photoshop

Borra el registro "photoshop" y listo. A mi me solucionó.

Hi Marcus,

So yesterday I just opened Photoshop and the same happened to me. I'm in a bit of a panic as I'm unable to continue my work. I have already uninstalled & reinstalled but the same happened. 

Did you find a solution? Arrrgghhh HELP!

[Ben Turley]

So this just worked for me..... its a combination of the above :

First I did this :

• Exit Photoshop and the Creative Cloud desktop app

• Navigate to \Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop <version>
• Delete the CT Font Cache  and FontFeatureCache folder

Then I also did this :

Restore your preferences using this manual method:
https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/preferences.html#Manually

Then empty the Recycle Bin.
