    Help please. Photoshop quit being my default image app, and cant fix


    Everything was working fine yesterday until I was trying to download a Photoshop brush from Brusheezy.com that had an extension I didn’t recognize, and I don’t remember what it was. It popped up an error message, then, every time I tried to open anything that Photoshop normally opens.
    I went into Default Settings and tried to set Photoshop as default photo viewer, but it will not let me.
    I right clicked the files, selected “opens with,” clicked choose another app., and made sure the box was checked before clicking Photoshop.
    I right clicked the file, selected properties, and change. I selected Photoshop, but it won’t save.
    Nothing works to make Photoshop the default program. It keeps trying to open with Paint 3D.
    I only use Photoshop. I only have 1 version,19.1.6, installed. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it.
    I checked for malware and viruses and don’t have any.

    Will not associate images with Photoshop. I spent at least an hour with an Adobe expert screen sharing to try to fix it, but he couldn’t. He tried editing the registry, but that didn’t work either. He said my registry is corrupt. So, I ran sfc /scannow and got this message:
    Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files and successfully repaired them.
    For online repairs, details are included in the CBS log file located at
    windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For offline
    repairs, details are included in the log file provided by the /OFFLOGFILE flag.

    I restarted the computer. But it’s still not working!!!

    :)

    Can't Select Photoshop as a Default App


    Hi
    I've just downloaded Photoshop CC2018 and tried to make it the default photo viewer, but it does not appear in the list of apps that I can select from. Have also tried doing the same for opening .jpg files, but just the same, no Photoshop! I have rebooted the system a couple of times but it makes no difference.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks

  3. How can I change my default view of images to my Photoshop jpeg format?

    If that's the case, kindly try these steps and see if this resolves the issue:

    • Open File Explorer, then right-click on a JPEG file.
    • Select Properties, then click Change beside
      Opens with.
    • Select Photoshop. If Photoshop is not on the list, select
      Look for another app on this PC
      .
    • From the list, select Photoshop.

    If the Photoshop app is missing, we highly suggest that you update the app or uninstall; then reinstall the Photoshop app through Windows Store.

    Get back to us should you need further help.
