My older Nik software which worked in Photoshop CC 2019 no longer appears in the filters in Photoshop CC 2020. How do I get it back?
For Windows you just need to copy the Google folder from this location
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2019\Plug-ins
to this location
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2020\Plug-ins
It's working fine for me with Photoshop 2020, old free Nik Collection

You are sure that the version of your software is compatible with the 2020 version of photoshop?!

Understooded that it may not.
Hence, the question here if there is workaround it.
If I'm using latest DXO Nik, the question shall be posted at DXO Forum.
Thank you.

I have successfully installed the Google NIK collection (free software) into Photoshop 2020 (V21.0) and it works just fine EXCEPT Silver Efex Pro which will not open. I just get a message : 'The command "<unknown>" is not currently available.' It works fine in earlier versions of PS. Any suggestions? Windows 10 OS.

Try going into the Nik settings and selecting this option

No, that does not work either. I had it already set to this option. This fix stops PS from crashing after editing in NIK. My problem is that Silver Efex will not open at all. Thanks for ytour help anyway.

I have got it working. In the programs folder I clicked on the set-up exe icon and that opened Photoshop with Silver efex working. So relieved! It's bugged me for 4 days.

Hi there,
As you're not able to use the nik plugin collection in Photoshop, could you please update Photoshop to version 21.0.1 and then reinstall the nik collection and see if it works?
Regards,
Sahil

Sahil, does this apply to Mac and PC?

Mine shows up under filters, but the edits aren't coming back into Photoshop.

Same here. Still not solved. (but seems mod already labeled as solved)

This is exactly my problem. I can edit in Silver Efex but edits don't come back into Photoshop. Any ideas?

Hit "CTRL ALT F" just after the filter "did nothing" and returned to Photoshop

Thank you so much! That works, but why does it work do you think?

Most likely is a conflict of permissions ... try this as well: https://fstoppers.com/originals/easy-fix-nik-collections-recent-crash-issues-206843

Thanks. Tried your advice regarding saving to new layer but still only works if I CTRL-ALT-F. At least I can now get it to work thanks to your advice

The copy and paste worked for me, managed to get SilverEfex working under Filters menu in PS 2020 and pulled through to Photoshop. Win 10 user - Old free version of Nik collection.
