Hello everyone. After using photoshop for 10 minutes my computer starts to slow down and everything ends up being very laggy. Even if I close out of photoshop, everything gets super laggy. The only thing that will stop the lag is restarting the computer. I've contacted their support and have done everything they told me and it still doesn't help. I uninstalled and reinstalled. Still nothing. I tried using the Affinity photo editing software and after 10 minutes, the lag starts again. Task manager doesn't show anything wrong with the memory and everything seems normal. I run Windows, have a 1080ti graphics card and 32 gigs of ram. My computer runs games and multiple processes very well, so I really do not know the issue.
After closing Photoshop, open the Task Manager (Ctrl Alt Delete) and click on the CPU column to organise things in order of CPU usage. What is using all the CPU cycles?
After restarting your computer to clean things up (or you could try using End Task on the offending item in Task Manager but that can cause other problems depending on what that process is) and start Photoshop while holding down the Shift key. This will prevent third party plugins from loading. Use for a while and close and see if you still have a problem. If it fixes things then track down the offending plugin
