PS 2022 doesn't show up with "open with" options.

When I right click on an image and move my cursor over the "open with" option, Photoshop 2021 shows up but not Photoshop 2022. This was working fine until today (04/12/2022) when I recieved an update to all of my Adobe apps. I've tried everything I can think of to correct this to no avail. Any suggestions would be very welcome. Thank you!

Hello Ranjisha and thank you for your time.

I went to the registry like you said and the info there said "C:\Program Files\Adobe Photoshop 2021\Photoshop.exe"

"%1". However, I don't want PS 2021, I want PS 2022 to show up in the "open with" drop down menu. I'm not familiar with the registry editor, so I don't know how to change it to Photoshop 2022. I'm on windows 11 and Photoshop v.23.3.0. Also this just showed up after an update yesterday 4/13/2022, before that it was working fine.

Hi there,

 

Sorry about the trouble with Photoshop that you're seeing. We're here to help.

Which version of Windows are you using? What is the exact version of Photoshop where you noticed this issue (Help> System Info)? Did you try re-installing the application?

Are you referring to this option?

 

If you're on Windows, look in the registry in this location and see if the Photoshop.exe key is set.

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\Photoshop.exe\shell\open\command

You should see the below

To open the registry, type regedit in the run command.

 

Let us know if this helps.

 

Regards,

Ranjisha
