Hi there,

 

Sorry that Photoshop don't launch on the macOS Big Sur. 

 

Please update your macOS BigSur version to the latest 11.2.1 and see if that helps. Also, make sure that Photoshop 2021 is updates to the latest version. See: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/uptodate.html 

 

If that still does not help, it seems that you are facing a known issue with Photoshop version 22.x on macOS BigSur. Please checkout this discussion where this issue is being monitored by the engineering team: https://feedback.photoshop.com/conversations/photoshop/photoshop-2221-wont-open-on-new-m1-mac-lightr...  

 

If you want to use Photoshop, please install a previous version from the Creative Cloud Desktop app. See: https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/using/install-previous-version.html 

 

Thanks,

Akash

All of my versions were just updated that was when I started having the problem. I have resoved it, I had to uninstall without keeping preferences etc. Then reinstall.

Did you try to reset your preferences before uninstalling? Sounds like you took the long way to do so.
