Hi there,

Sorry that Photoshop is freezing while rendering videos on your Mac running OS Catalina. 

This is a known issue in Photoshop and Mac OS Catalina. Please checkout the steps below:

First off, please check that you are running the latest version of Photoshop 21.1.1(Check this under Help> System info)

Workaround if you're using 20.0.7 or earlier

In the Finder, launch System Preferences and navigate to Security & Privacy > Privacy tab > Full Disk Access. Click the lock icon in the lower left, enter your admin username & password. Click the + icon and add Photoshop to grant access to your hard disk.

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks,

Akash

there is no option to downgrade to 20.0.7 on Creative Cloud?
