If you don’t use ZIP compression for TIFF, then TIFF is not going to be smaller than PSD/PSB so there’s no point, just use PSD/PSB. Uncompressed TIFF files are huge, and TIFF+LZW compression doesn’t save as much as ZIP and in some cases can create larger files than PSD/PSB.  By @Conrad_C   My experience with Tiff compression is that LZW compression works very well with 8-bit files, and can reduce the file size considerably. LZW does not work well with 16-bit files, and can increase the file size. For 16-bit files, ZIP is the best option, but it doesn't compress as well as LZW does with 8-bit files, I typically get a 20-25% reduction in file size. ... View more

When the 'link' between Lightroom Classic and Photoshop has issues, the first step is to try this: Use the Adobe Creative Cloud Application to uninstall Photoshop. When asked, keep preferences! After this reinstall Photoshop again.   If this doesn't help the nest step is to reinstall both apps Lightroom and Photoshop. Please folloe the steps below:   1. Open the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop Client and uninstall both Photoshop and Lightroom Classic. When asked, keep preferences!  2.

Are you saving to jpeg? Then you need to include steps in the action that makes the file conform to the jpeg specification prior to the save. Flatten all layers, reduce to 8 bit color depth, delete alpha channels.   An operating system change a while ago made it impossible to directly save out a copy if the file has properties not supported in the target file format.   Generally: Make sure the path is not recorded in the action.   If it's highlighted in blue in the save dialog when you record, the save path is a permanent part of the action. It's also possible to re-record that specific step without re-recording the entire action. Just double-click the step. ... View more

This is related to a larger issue, where several modules stop responding after Photoshop has been running for an undetermined period (5 minutes to several hours).   The affected modules are Save For Web, the Camera Raw filter, Liquify - and a couple more filters from the Filter menu, but these are the most commonly reported.   Quite a lot of users are affected, but apparently not all. Or maybe they're just not letting Photoshop run long enough, or don't use these particular modules much.   I've been trying to draw attention to this many times, but I don't seem to be getting any traction, so I've resigned myself to it. Relaunching Photoshop returns everything to normal for a while, so it's not actually stopping you from using these modules. Just an inconvenience. Note that they still work correctly in actions, so it's not the underlying functionality - t's just that the interface doesn't come up..   This bug only exists in Photoshop 25.11 and later. Previous versions did not exhibit this. I keep 25.9 installed for time-critical projects. ... View more

@Miss_Val22 And that conclusion is wrong. You can hardly blame Windows or Photoshop if it displays oversaturated on other devices. We don't know how those other devices are set up, what applications you're using and whether they support color management at all.   You keep saying you didn't have any problem before, but nothing about what your current settings are.   The most likely explanation is that you're not embedding the color profile. Without a color profile, all colors are undefined.  This can happen if you have "played with" color settings without knowing what you're doing. Reset everything to defaults!   This basically works correctly out of the box - but a special note if you use Export or Save For Web. Here, the "embed color profile" checkbox is unchecked by default. Once checked, it sticks.   Getting a Mac won't fix your problem. Photoshop works identically on both platforms. You can mess up color settings equally on both.   Start by posting a screenshot of Photoshop's Color Settings dialog. ... View more

Corrupt preferences can cause all kinds of strange and unpredictable behavior. The preferences file contains a lot more than your own user settings - it's the whole application configuration including lots of hidden parameters. It's complex. It's everything that has been modified since the virgin first launch.   Preferences are prone to corruption because they are rewritten on every application exit. An irregular shutdown, or interrupted shutdown sequence, can corrupt them.   Preferences are stored in your user account, not in the installed program files. An uninstall will not touch them, you have to manually delete it. ... View more

With the really wonderful lens blur simulation tool, I would really love to see other optical simulations such as halation to simulate film glow or blackmist lens filters.  Halation for those of you who don't know is a glow on bright light sources that spills further into the image. If you've ever had a foggy lens, that's sort of an extreme version of the effect. It creates a dreamy effect, and softens it while still retaining clarity (not quite sure how to properly describe it, but it's kind of a perfect meld of filmic softness and digital clarity).    It would be very useful to do this without having to use a filter, which is an additional piece of equipment and can effect exposure and focus, and is ultimately a "destructive" effect that you can't change in editing once you've shot with the filter.   It's possible to emulate this with a roundtrip to photoshop or other tools, but that's time consuming and is quite fiddly and takes up additional hard drive space with copies. I'd love to have it built into lightroom as another nondestructive tool with sliders to adjust things like the luminance threshold/curve, size and opacity of the blur to be able to create more stylised filmic images. ...

First of all, there is no reason to match all these profiles, and in fact you shouldn't.   Set ACR to open in the color space you prefer, like Adobe RGB. This profile will be embedded into the processed RGB file ACR sends to Photoshop, and override any other working space you may have set there. The main thing in Photoshop is to have policies set to "Preserve Embedded Profiles". This is the only important setting! Set your monitor to Native, not any emulation like Adobe RGB. The monitor has its own native color space, and that's fine. It's not supposed to match anything else. Any preset will only limit its capabilities. Run the calibration software. When it's done calibrating, it will measure the monitor's color space in that calibrated state, and write a monitor profile that describes how the monitor behaves, in detail. It's a standard icc profile. This profile is automatically set as system default for that monitor. You don't need to do anything. When Photoshop starts up, it gets this profile from the operating system. Photoshop - and, independently, ACR! - uses this monitor profile in a standard profile conversion, from the source color space into the monitor color space. Those corrected numbers are sent to screen. This way, the image is correctly represented on screen.   Get all these ducks in a row first, then come back if it still doesn't look right.   EDIT: looking closer at the screenshot, there is something strange going on in the highlights. It's clearly the monitor profile, but it's not clipping; it looks like the whole tone curve is different, in all channels. The takeaway from that is that it's not a defective profile, it looks like the wrong profile. Which again brings me back to what I wrote above. ... View more

@Michael26531295kdax  That wasn't what anyone said - it was just mentioned in passing as a possible cause (hacker-modified code). Which isn't entirely unreasonable, given the extremely high volume of pirated copies being offered on the internet, to unsuspecting buyers.   But the general consensus is that this is most likely the GPU driver. If not that, then possibly an overheating/malfunctioning hardware component.   The bottom line is in any case that a modern application cannot cause a BSOD. That's prevented by sandboxes and insulating layers. What the application can do, is trigger a BSOD by making specific calls that expose latent problems. ... View more

First of all, I would reset SFW preferences, not Photoshop preferences (you need to google that; I can't recall which keys to press as you launch. But either way you can rename/move the SFW settings folder in your user account, which does the same thing).   Secondly - the preferences are much more than your own user settings. It's the sum total of the application configuration, including lots of hidden parameters that are dependent on other settings. It's complex, and that's why corrupt preferences can cause weird and unpredictable behavior. ... View more

A preset will not work the same way on an RGB file and a raw file.   That has nothing to do with the applications, but is a result of how the data are encoded in the file. Any numerical adjustment is relative to the color space - the three primaries and the tone response curve.   A raw file is linear (gamma 1.0) with ProPhoto primaries - at least it is by the time the presets are applied (out of the camera it's grayscale).    Once opened into Photoshop, the tone curve is not linear, but can be gamma 2.2, 1.8, or the rather idiosyncratic sRGB curve. The primaries are not necessarily the same either, they can be sRGB, Adobe RGB or DCI-P3. All of this affects what a certain adjustment will do.   Just as a very simple illustration, setting the black point at 1 or 2 in a ProPhoto file will usually result in significant and noticeable black clipping. Doing the same in an Adobe RGB file will probably not be very visible at all.   And, since this seems to be an extremely common misunderstanding: you do not need to match color settings or profiles between Lightroom and Photoshop. The whole point of color management is that color spaces do not need to match. Preserving color from one to the other is what color management does. Any profile you set in Lightroom will be correctly treated and correctly interpreted in Photoshop. ... View more
