When Photoshop Starts to Lag, Here's What to Do!

Very informative brother thanks! =)

from 6 Months ago , all versions of Photoshop lagging and flickering like hell and freezing on my Pc , I have workstation with Beast comfig , no idea what is wrong with photoshop only. no need to add any layer just open photoshop and everything goes to shit.

lol that didn't work for me PiX, every time I use layers its realy slow to paint a line. I have cleaned windows, system files, and all NO change. what a night mare.. help please.

thank you

will a bigger ssd used for scratch like from 512 to 1t would help lagging?

Thanks! 🙏

Bro you solved my problem 😮

Watching your Photoshop beginners

You're now a grown man. Smiles. This is 2023

The problem is; Import -scan -then automatically downloaded Bmp file in folder,How to stop it😢 pls reply

That's just Adobe's way to force their users to buy newer hardware. They make it more and more load heavy on purpose every new release. CS5 loads in about 5 seconds on a SSD, while Adobe 2020 loads in around 25 ~ 30 seconds on a SSD.

what is ur pc configaration sir

omg this helped me - thank you so much! :D

NO its always photoshops fault. its programmed like its 1995

i clicked this video because i think the thumbnail is mocking me saying "your photoshop lagging? Ha, you deserve it!"

what are the steps to do the same in Illustrator please?

I install some brushes in photoshop and now my photoshop work very slow even I don't use any of this brushes

I always watching your videos and listen to, thank you very much!!

Hey umm my ps has a problem when press a button it doesn’t do anything but when press it again I works but it rather does what I previous wanted it to do. I’m not sure if you get me. Lets say I press ctrl+T to transform a layer, now pressing right key would move it to the right and so as the other directions, but pressing right does nothing, pressing up now moves it to the right, meaning it’s rather doing previous actions instead doing the it real time. How’s is this fixed?

(All) option show but not working please reply

Thank yo Sir, Mine worked.

hey, anyone havoing major slow issues with PS 2023, i have a high end PC build, 32GB DDR4 fastest ram (yes i could do with more) i9 processor top end, geforce rtx 2060 6gb - anyone help? ive also done all the usual setting adjustments in preferences to optimise it and still ultra slow even when working with small files and few layers/adjustments

What about when the only thing that is lagging is in the print dialogue box? When selecting print size...etc it takes like 30 seconds to respond

that was my problem. Thank you so much

What should I do, if my brush tool lags - when I use my mouse, everything is OK, it produces a normal stoke. But when I change it to stylus, instead of a stroke I get dots and straight lines. Also sometimes happend to one of my brushes - instead of its usual performance of imitatimg chalk it now looks like something bushy, like a sponge, though the form of the brushes isn't changed. The last problem happend after I tried o definitely someone brushes from PNGs. I tried to reinstall newly downloaded brush pack, but that didn't happend

I don't usually comment but 🙏

My issue is that it completely doesn’t updating anything I try to use. I can click around and highlight tools but the picture remains frozen and won’t show that I’m adding towards the photo

I was working on a large file(13,04,625 kb) while the Photoshop froze. I had to restart the pc but now everytime I try to save the file it freezes again. Does anybody know the solution?
Thanks in advance.

my pc lags when I use adobe photoshop refine edge tool? Processor'AMD Ryzen 3 3200G, RAM 8 GB, SSD 240 GB.

help, whenever i add background to my picture everything stops and it took minutes before it works again....

I have a good processor, 32G of ram, Rtx 3070, still can't use photoshop, It lags like crazy. speically the newer 2021 + 2022 versions.

You are Amazing 👏

Im gonna cry, thank you

I just had this problem and thought it was my computer, what fixed the brush for me though was the fact that I didnt realize i had smoothing on in brush settings even though smoothing was shown to be off at the top of my photoshop bar. hopefully this helps someone else with the same issue of brush lag.

Do you know if there is a way to do this on Affinity Photo?

It is not
playing

Dear Unmesh, unfortunately the video is not working anymore. Can you fix it?

For the love of God, can someone tell me what the tips were in this video? It just wont play!!!!!

It fixed for some time and starts lagging again when I switch to another project

Got lag!!! Here’s what to do. Bang!! straight to the point!!! Done!!!! Brilliant. What’s not to like??

My MBP often lags but I'm only editing JPGs of football matches. It's a right pain! It's also when I use Camera Raw.

Thank you for this.
