So here's the tough part. Since it doesn't crash as a new user or Safe mode, there is a conflict with something in the original (Admin?) user that is making it crash. The hard part is figuring out what that is. The first task is to disable all auto log in items in Users and Groups>Login Items in your System preferences (System Settings in Ventura). You can make a screen capture or jot down what each item is, disable, restart and try again. If it doesn't crash, you can add one or more items, restart and try again. At some point, you may find which item is at issue. It isn't easy but that's really the fix unless you do a clean install of the OS which might be more work. The bottom line is, that something in your user account is conflicting with the Adobe software. Gotta find out what that item is.

Try resetting your ACR preferences, better? Hold down the Command key and select Photoshop > Preferences > Camera Raw (MacOS*) or hold down the Ctrl key and select Edit > Preferences > Camera Raw (Windows). Click Yes in the dialog that asks "Delete the Camera Raw Preferences?" *On Ventura, it is now called "Settings".

We've been over this before: this is an Apple bug in Ventura. Canon's software, unlike Adobe, doesn't use the Apple SPI which causes this bug. Contact Apple and point them to this thread. It is their bug to fix.

Doesn't matter the canvas is transparent. What matters is how the output profile maps white using that (wrong) rendering intent. The absolute colorimetric rendering intent reproduces the exact color that existed in the source—absolutely. If the source was light color on the dingy yellow-white of newsprint, the resulting color on your brilliant coated ink jet paper will be dingy yellow. This intent is really designed for making one device simulate the appearance of another device for use in proofing.

If turning OFF the GPU works, it's a GPU bug, and you need to contact the manufacturer or find out if there's an updated driver for it. This is why disabling GPU is an option as more and more functionality moves to the GPU in newer versions of many Adobe products. Also see: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/kb/lightroom-gpu-faq.html https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/photoshop-cc-gpu-card-faq.html https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/acr-gpu-faq.html Disable third-party graphics accelerators. Third-party GPU overclocking utilities and haxies aren't supported.

When you use Photoshop Manages Color, on prints with the 'white' printing a color cast, hopefully you are NOT using Absolute Colorimetric rendering intent.

First try this: Try resetting the Camera Raw preferences: Hold down the Command key and select Photoshop > Preferences > Camera Raw (macOS*) or hold down the Ctrl key and select Edit > Preferences > Camera Raw (Windows). Click Yes in the dialog that asks "Delete the Camera Raw Preferences?" See also: https://helpx.adobe.com/camera-raw/using/camera-raw-settings.html *On Ventura, it is now called "Settings". If that doesn't work, if you disable GPU in your preferences, any difference?

Thank you so very much for the detailed reply. Unfortunately, it didn't work. I do believe it runs longer by running it as Administrator. But eventually, it ends up crashing just the same. I'd just like to know what it could possibly be doing to sometimes hang my entire system, sometimes for as much as a minute. By @Jimmy5C17 You were given a sound suggestion for fixing this (or, if that failed, pointing strongly to hardware issues), but you refused to try it.

The problem is, the Kelvin numbers define a very large scale of possible colors. You shouldn't expect differing cameras or raw converters to agree (and cameras are the wrong tool to even measure this). And each converter defines the meaning differently. Gotta do this visually. Case in point visually to the first sentence, any color on line is IS the same numeric value in Kelvin: All colors alone this line are the same Kelvin value Numbers are all over the map

Its more a venting of frustration that with every update it can feel like a new piece of software Thanks @TheDigitalDog not sure what the purpose of that was though, I know all of these methods and have used them....although prior to me saying that, you obviously wouldn't be aware that I have 😛 By @twinbrush Venting here is pointless; that's my point. “My core belief is that if you're complaining about something for more than three minutes, two minutes ago you should have done something about it.“ -Caitlin Moran File a bug report, or feature request, don't (auto) update, or ask for help but venting is futile.

Its more a venting of frustration that with every update it can feel like a new piece of software; which is fine if there's new features you want to use....but the frustration a lot of people vent about is when established workflows change without any logical reason. By @twinbrush From Adobe (community forums): "Currently, the community on community.adobe.com is used as a destination for customers to ask questions and engage in peer-to-peer conversations. IOW, this is a user-to-user support forum. The Adobe Support Community is a place to ask questions, find answers, learn from experts, and share your knowledge. Because we are a community used by people of all ages, cultures, and people at work, we carefully moderate its content". If you have problems or need answers from other users who volunteer their time to help, do so in a discussion topic and message body, whereby you post specifics (what's the problem or issue, or the question) and provide some information about your operating system, version of the software you're asking about and steps to illustrate your problem. https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-discussions/p-fine-tune-the-subject-line-of-your-adobe-community-forum-post-for-better-results/td-p/13476026 If you want Adobe to be viewing what you post, there are two ways based on what you are hoping to report: If you wish to report what you believe is a bug, you do so by following these guidelines: https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem-bugs/how-do-i-write-a-bug-report/idi-p/12373403 If you wish to provide a feature request, you do so by following these guidelines (then make a request in the product forum): https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-ideas/how-do-i-write-a-feature-request/idi-p/12386378

I guess my reply is essentially in the wrong post topic as it was more a vent of frustration towards random changes in workflow, rather than the amount of bugs. Althought these ones do crop up very frequently. By @twinbrush Sure is! HOW TO FILE A BUG REPORT: Photoshop: https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem-bugs/how-do-i-write-a-bug-report/idi-p/12373403 And yeah, those intermittent issues (none of which I've ever seen that you mention) are complicated to find let alone fix. This is why filling a proper bug report for Adobe is key; like you know, actually using the System Info in Photoshop to let the team know precisely the system you're using, along with step-by-step instructions already outlined, to report a bug. Easier to rant. Far less effective if your goal is a fix.

@TheDigitalDog If users would spend as much time learning to use the product as writing complaints, we'd all save a lot of time. If Adobe stopped changing tried an tested workflows, users that have been using the software wouldn't, nor shouldn't have a need to re-learn how to do simple things. By @twinbrush Nope, wrong; tested (not by you, but some of us here). As illustrated, had some users read how the product changed using release notes, they'd see Adobe provided NEW functionality while providing OLD functionality to those who wish to use that old workflow. Best of both worlds. What Adobe can't force some users to do is study up on the products after automatically clicking "Update" and assuming, under (hard to believe) deadlines, a tool, then rant about changes they could control if they only studied the product for a few minutes. No one forced anyone to update the software. Some did blindly and didn't study the changes, then didn't like them; all their own fault, of course.

If you spent as much time learning how to use the tool or how to revert to the older Gradient behavior than ranting, you'd be in much better shape.

You should get the profile from the printer. Any generic output profile is hit or miss. Missing is expense!

When the 'link' between Lightroom Classic and Photoshop has issues, one of the first things to try is this: 1. Use the Adobe Creative Cloud application to uninstall both Photoshop and Lightroom Classic and when asked, keep preferences. 2. Install Photoshop first, then Lightroom Classic. The order of the product installed is what is very important here. Better?
