Question

Progress bar stuck on screen when opening image from Lightroom

I have an issue that has only started since the last 2 updates (to the current version).

When selecting "Open image in Photoshop" is used from lightroom the progress bar is left on the screen in photoshop even though the image has been transfered. Although you can just click withinn photoshop to move it to the back it is still a pain that never happened before.
Anyone else having this or worked out a solution ?

Similar issue for me on Windows 10 with PS 24.0 and LR 6.0. It doesn't open the image at all, just gets stuck on "Opening in Photoshop"

Same here. The banner remains even on top of other apps that I am using - and now we're on version 23.0 Can't Adobe get their act together? They charge enough, I would say. Not amused at all

Yup, release 23.0.0 still has the same problem. MacMini (2018) running Monterey MacOS 12.0.1

SAME PROBLEM.  And now it won't even disappear to the back.  Clicking "cancel" does nothing.    :-[

I'm trying to gather info on this. Is everyone seeing this on a Mac? 

Is it only happening when opening a file from Lightroom?

Lightroom (cloud based) or Lightroom Classic?

Have you seen it when opening from Bridge?

Are you using a single monitor or multiple monitors?

Does it ever say something more than just "Progress" in the box?

Desktop machine or notebook? While I have seen it on my iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2015), I have never seen this bar on my Macbook Air.

Do you have a file that always pops up this box? Or is it totally random?
Are you seeing this with all file types or just raw images?

Seriously Adobe...I posted this issue July last year and yet still after every update it continues ...and the same it appears for many other users. I am a working professional and little things like this are a serious pain in a working day, although not the end of the world to click outside to make it disappear it's like having to punch the vending machine to get your coin to drop....you just shouldn't have to keep doing it !

Incredible. It is Oct 2021 and this is still an issue. Didn't notice it as much most of this year but it's happening now 100% of the time. Last year it would cause PS to inevitably crash minutes into whatever I'm working on, seems to be at least more stable now despite the progress bar hanging around.

This problem has since disappeared for me. I don't know if an update did it or which one. I am currently on the latest CC versions of PS and LR Classic.

Mine goes away with each update, but comes back a week or so later. Just saw it again earlier today.
