Photoshop only opens as a background process - 2022

New Here ,
Dec 30, 2021 Dec 30, 2021

HELP!!  I've been trying for days now to get Photoshop to download and OPEN.  I got a new laptop for Christmas and it's great but, my issue is now I am unable to use Photoshop at all.  I have downloaded it through CC several times now, each time taking hours to download after uninstalling it first.  I have tried several older versions to see if that's the issue.  I have changed my system user profile to a local profile, still wont work, I have updated all the graphic drivers, downloaded and updated the NVIDIA Studio Driver, still wont work.  I have tried ending task from the background process and relaunching, still wont work.  I have tried opening with Run as Administrator, still wont work.  I am at my witts end with this and don't know what to do anymore.  I am not a computer whizz so I feel like I have exceeded my abilities to solve this issue and now hope someone here can help me figure this one out further.

If the previous hint doesn't work try to create a new window user account and install the CC and photoshop under it.
