Photoshop Freezing Entire Windows
As the title states my entire computer freezes while using photoshop. This problem occurs usually when I use the brush/eraser/smudge tool. I have tried everything I could to solve this issue including the following; fresh install, reinstalling old versions, disable GPU, reset custom preferences, adding more RAM, switching scratch disks, running photoshop in compatibility mode, removing all plugins and doing registry fixes.
This has been a massive headache and would like this to be resolved ASAP.
For example, the freezing happens after using the brush tool to paint and then I switch to a custom brush and when placing my pen on the tablet my cursor freezes along with my computer. This happens to only default brushes as well when testing what causes the freezes. Is something corrupted? Do I have to reinstall windows for this to be fixed?
Here are my specs:
Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9700K CPU @ 3.60GHz, 3600 Mhz, 8 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)
Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 16.0 GB
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070
Lexar 500GB SSD + 5TB HHD
I will be posting the Photoshop system info log in the replies.
Thank you.
