The command "Feather" is not currently available in image processor

[DBS1985]

I often receive photos that are high resolution - and our website needs them smaller. 

In Photoshop, I go to "Scripts" and run the "Image Processor" - and every single photo brings up a message that says "The command "Feather" is not currently available" which requires that I hit "continue" on every single photo.

Is there a way I can change something on Photoshop to not get this command?

It sounds like your Image Processor setup includes running an action that includes applying a feather to a selection. There are a few solutions:

• At the bottom of the Image Processor dialog in section 4 Preferences, deselect Run Action if you don't need to run it
• Keep the Action but edit it to
  • Delete the Feather step
  • Set a selection (for instance, Select > All) before the Feather step - You can record setting the selection and after stopping the recording, reorder it so that Set Selection comes before Feather

Yes, this happens to me all the time Myra, with various downloads of Photoshop. My files are big and have many cut-out selections in separate layers and with guess a s you go feathers in them. As soon as I took the tick out of the >> Run Action < command [ see below ], the problem has gone.  But not the steaming from the laptop when it hits a 30-gigabyte file,

So you want to run action when processing files but you do not want to see warning dialogues? Is my guess wrong or right?

[paulscottfilms]

It is not a warning it is a refusal to operate the program.
We could probably do without warnings

[Bojan Živković]

You must ensure that step can be executed like there is active selection in the document or exclude that step from action, turn it off or delete it. No other ways, there isn't option to instruct Photoshop to ignore non executable steps.

Upload one image to let us localize cause.

That would come up if you use the command feather with nothing selected.

Do you have an action set that uses feather? Make sure this is not checked.

Photoshop Malfunctions in saving a group of PSD or PSB files to a lesser file ie  JPG

This is within the process:: 

1. Within Adobe Bridge select a group of files or an entire directory of files

2. go to Bridge tools  / then to Photoshop / then to  Image processor / then select quality if jpg files  / 

3. At the palette which appears  in the bottom left > Untick the box which says run action >> repeat untick this box 

and then go to the top right of the file and press  " Run"    and the thing will work

[ yes, photoshop engineers live in a different world >> but they may be attempting to save the layers

as in  save to Tiff  files ]  You probably want lesser files for other people or even for something which Bridge can see in less than

 5 minutes 

What you will achieve  here is  a continuous uplift of the psd or PSB file and then save as per you direction.

Repeat  Untick  the > Run action box
