Photoshop has become highly unstable

[ariell56714774]

Hello,

Ever since the last 2 or 3 updates Photoshop has become highly unstable, slowing its performance to sometimes become unusable. For example: applying simple changes (like changing the color for a small text) takes forever. It now crashes in a similar way than Illustrtor usually does. This was not happening a month ago.

I have uninstalled it and installed it again 2 times and the results are the same. Even on different computers.

Please perform a performance upgrade urgently.

Please try the following:

• Go to Preferences > Performance... and uncheck Multithreaded Compositing - and restart Photoshop. Does the problem persist?
• Go to Preferences > Performance... click Advanced Settings... and uncheck "GPU Compositing" - then restart Photoshop. Does the problem still occur?
• Go to Preferences > Technology Previews... and check "Disable Native Canvas" - then restart Photoshop. Does the problem still occur?
• Go to Preferences > Performance... and uncheck Use Graphics Processor. Restart Photoshop. Does the problem persist?
