I made the mistake of 'upgrading' from CC2019 to CC2021 yesterday and now I am plagued by an insane amount of issues that I've never experienced in this same quantity before. These combined make the program near impossible to use. The most notable ones are as follows:
- The canvas freezes, but the rest of the program seems to retain functionality. Constantly requires closing and reopening the project.
- Pen pressure stops working, wont recognize my custom user preferences text file that was working perfectly fine literally earlier that day. Have to delete the file and enable Windows Ink which causes a slew of new issues.
- Some tools, most notably the zoom tool and sometimes the brush, have a ~1 second delay before it starts working.
- Brush strokes seem to lag at the beginning, causing curved lines to have a straight segment at the beginning of every stroke.
- The program, for no apparent reason, starts running extremely slowly when just 20 minutes before it was running very smooth. (When this performance hit happens, it usually signifies something has occurred that causes the previous issues but there is no apparent reason as to why this happens.)
I have tried almost everything from disabling smoothing, messing with performance options, uninstalling and reinstalling various tablet drivers and PS versions, messing with Windows Ink settings and WinTab, messing with PSUserConfig files (which were working fine just yesterday but now today apparently CC2021 won't accept this .txt file anymore), and many other things. If anyone knows anything to remedy even one of these issues I would be insanely grateful. Better yet, if there is any way to somehow get CC2019 again, that would be the best day of my life. Thanks.
