I've been researching this issue for the past several months across several versions of Photoshop, but I simply haven't been able to find a solution. I'm at my wit's end and am desperate for a solution.
Whenevermy Graphics Processor is enabled, opening a file will take me between 45 seconds and 1 minute. This could literally be a basic, 512x512 JPEG avatar for Discord, up to a multi-layer PSD file. Zooming and panning feel smooth once it's loaded, but the loading itself takes forever. Panels slowly populate, the entire application hangs, and it's practicallyunusableuntil it fully loads. Once I turn my Graphics Processor off, opening files is snappy. However, zooming/panning are practically unusable with how slow they become. I feel like I have to compromise on one awfulscenario or another, and I'm being charged a not-insignificant amount of money per month to make said compromise. I find this unacceptable.
Here's a list, in no particular order, of what I've tried:
Resetting Preferences
Running Photoshop as Administrator
Changing Font Preview quantity
Changing Grid Subdivisions
ChangingALLoptions for Graphics Processor
Clean Reinstalling Photoshop
Clean Reinstalling Graphics Drivers
Updating Windows
Changing Recent Files Quantity
Moving Scratch Disks
Moving image files to same NVMe SSD as Photoshop
There might even be more I can't recall. None of these have fixed the issue. For posterity's sake, I'll post my PC's specs below:
Im in the same boat as you with this nonsense. Been having this issue on serveral different high end machines with the same results. I even have a 3080 and a 10700k over clocked to 5.3 and still no change its different this programing. Im honestly looking into a class action lawsuit regarding all these issues.
