Photoshop freezes after opening files

Community Beginner ,

I'm having an issue where Photoshop freezes after opening a file. Here's what happens:

 

1) Open any PSD or image file

2) Photoshop opens the file and is responsive for approx. 3 seconds

3) Photoshop remains unresponsive for approx. 3 seconds (only Photoshop - any other running apps are fine)

4) Photoshop unfreezes and remains responsive until opening another file

 

I have tried resetting the prefs file, changing performance settings, disconnecting network printers, even uninstalling and reinstalling Photoshop.

 

My OS is Windows 10.


Any help is appreciated!

The solution was to completely uninstall Photoshop using the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool (Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool) and then reinstall it.
