Missing filters in Photoshop CC

I have Photoshop CC and seem to be missing many of the filters. All of the following are either missing entirely or are missing some of their sub-items: artistic, brush stroke, distort, render (only have lighting effects), stylize filters (about half are missing), sketch, and texture. Am I missing something? Is there some setting I need to enable? In my research, someone suggested selecting the "Show all Filter Gallery groups and names" check box in Preferences -> Plug-Ins. Unfortunately, that didn't have any effect. Photoshop (and all my other Creative Cloud apps are up to date). Any suggestions? Or do I need to contact Support?

I know this is an old thread, but in case anyone is ever looking for these, if you go to filter/filter gallery, they all show up there.

Convert the layer/imange to 8-bit mode by going to image>Mode>8 Bits/Channel after showing all filters in the preferences.

I've just learned that a lot of the filters don't support 16bit or more for some reason and they haven't bothered updating so that they do.

It should let you choose the filters and the filter gallery that was previously grayed out.

First thing to check is Preferences > Plug-ins and make sure 'Show all filter groups and names' is checked.

Thanks Trevor. But I already tried that. I was hoping it would be something simple like that and the filters would magically appear...

Image mode and bit depth? Sounds like you would know to check that.

Are we talking about standard Photoshop filters, or third party plug-ins?
