[QUOTE="hark, post: 469149, member: 13196"] When I use Photoshop on jpegs, the majority of times I right click on a jpeg and select the option to open with PCC 2015. Since the upgrade from PCC 2014 to PCC 2015, the option to work this way is no longer available. I thought perhaps I just needed to associate the program with the files it will open; however, that doesn't even work. After searching online, I found this discussion which says it is a mistake on Adobe's part and needs to have the registry changed. [B]Since I've never made this type of change, is this something that Adobe can possibly fix in an update, or will it require waiting until Adobe releases a new version?[/B] The following comes from this link and is found halfway down the page: [URL]https://forums.adobe.com/message/5433379/[/URL] [SIZE=3] [COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean]After looking at a new user's registry HKEY_CURRENT_USER and comparing it to the one on the original user, I found a registry value which was not changed, and should have been.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean]I found a key:[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean]HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\Photoshop.exe\shell\open\command[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean]This key was set to the path for Photoshop CS6 when it should have been set to Photoshop CC.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean]In other words, in my case, it was set to:[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean]"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe" "%1"[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean]When I changed the CS6 to a CC, in other words, so the whole key reads:[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean]"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC (64 Bit)\Photoshop.exe" "%1"[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean]Everything now works perfectly.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#333333][FONT=adobe-clean][B]There's no question this is an installer bug and I imagine it's going to hit anyone who upgrades from CS6 to CC.
