Photoshop 2021 freezes when using Select Color Range

[defaultyxh5nx68wwv7]

Using the latest 2021 version of Photoshop, I'm having an issue where the program stops working when using Select Color Range.  The tool opens, but then everything freezes when the Range or Fuzziness sliders are moved.  The only option is to Force Quit the program. 

Is anyone else seeing this issue?

Details:

Hardware: Late 2013 iMac

Operating System: Catalina 10.15.7

Processor:  i7 with 24GB of memory

Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M with 2GB of VRAM

Same problem and lost hours of work due to force quit. I see this has been happening for moths and has not been solved yet.

I will try the turning the rulers off, not happy with having to do that but better than the freeze.

Adobe, please fix this soon. It's not a minor problem.

I'm having the same problem. Turning off the ruleres seems to help.

It is clear that the problem lies in the incompatibility of this latest version of the PS with AMD's video card from Apple. Adobe needs to do a new update, to fix this flaw, unfortunately I have no answer from any of them.

Seems to have been resolved in Ver 22.2.0 update. Touching wood.

I have been having this problem with my PC for about a month now.  Clicking on Color Range under Select immediately freezes PS and I have to force quit the program.

In Photoshop, go to Help > System Info... What version do you have installed? Make sure you on the latest version.

[maxh91187689]

Yes, I have current version: Adobe Photoshop Version: 22.5.1 20210907.r.441 de74e1a x64
