I copied the NIK filter files inside each NIK Collection filter folder into Plugin folder in adobe PS 2023, and then they all appeared in Filters later in PS.

    I have the same problem with Nik not opening up in photoshop. It doesn't show up in the automate button. Yet, there is the full folder in the plug ins section in photoshop in my c drive. It just won't open in photoshop. I am on windows 10.

    Did you look under the Filters drop down? Nik collection is under Filters.

      Funny thing, Rosa. Yesterday, the only indication that it was there, were the "about plug-ins" that simply showed the icons for Nik. It was not in (the usual place) Filters.  Also, under help/settings, it listed all the Nik software as being there, as not being there and as failed. It just wasn't opening in photoshop. I saw your note and I thought well, I will check again. Voila! There they are. It isn't opening with photoshop, but they are now running at least available through filters. So, thanks for the note to check them again!

        Same problem here but I have an M1 imac.   Can't get it to work even though I moved the Nik folder into the 2023 Photoshop folder

          @CapeSusan 

          Did you try copying the folder into the Common Files folder?

            If  @Ged_Traynor's solution doesn't work for you, then copy the Nik Collection folder from your old adobe version and paste it into C\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CC
            I had the same problem as you, and I moved my Nik Collection to the above location 2 PS versions ago and not had a problem.

              Hi

              Is this the original Nik collection from Google and do you still have the previous version of Photoshop installed

              For me the Google folder from the previous version was found here C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2022\Plug-ins

              I was able to copy the Google folder from the above location and paste it into C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2023\Plug-ins

              The Nik filters showed up in the filter menu for 2023
