"could not initialize photoshop because an unexpected end-of-file error was encountered" [2017]

[different_teacher5D2C]

Never had any problems with my photoshop application, however, recently I haven't even been able to open the programme. It comes up with an error box saying "could not initialize photoshop because an unexpected end-of-file error was encountered". After looking on the forums and online for a solution, I am stumped.

I have tried uninstalling and re-installing the programme but it still won't open.

How do I fix this

Thanks

Hello, I had also faced the same problem many times, but today I came here to find any solution that could help but all in vain. Then I started to tried open the curroupt file in all softwares one by one. Then Jackpot, the said file opened in corel photopaint and then I export my file again in PSD and you know what all the layers and colors were as previous.
