Hi there,

Sorry that Photoshop 22.2 is not working on your computer as it crashes after you launch the app.

What is your computer's OS? It seems you're on macOS, please share the version of macOS as well. 

1. If the app is crashing while opening and is stuck at loading "Halide Bottleneck" at the splash screen checkout these steps: If you're on macOS, please update to macOS Big Sur 11.2.1. For additional details, see Photoshop, Apple Silicon, and Big Sur | macOS 11
2. If that does not help, would you mind restoring the preferences for Photoshop & see if it helps? See this article for reference: https://t.co/ulJI7cGn1G You may want to backup your settings beforehand: https://t.co/4dX7gkr36D

Thanks,

Akash

Did you tried restoring the app preferences to default as suggested?

Thanks for the update. Please update Photoshop to the 22.3 version via the Creative Cloud Desktop app and check if that helps to resolve the crash issue.

Let us know the outcome.

Thanks,

Hello I have updated to the latest version. It now seems that if i open a project, it eventually works, but it takes between 3 - 5 mins to to load, after the spinning multi colored apple wheel stops.

Thank you for the advice.
